Optimisations for Madmapper stuttering with HAP 6144x6144 files?

I’ve been asked to help optimise a sometimes playback stuttering madmapper project which features 6144x6144 video files, being funnelled onto a 3D model in madmapper.

More details below. Any tips for what makes for the smoothest playing back HAP file, at 6144x6144?

cheers!

HAP files - 6144x6144
project with 21 of these large video files..
all funnelled in sequence, onto a 3d model in madmapper

playback machine = 10-core 2017 imac, 32 gb ram, graphics card, Radeon Pro Vega 56 / 6gb / 3.0GHz Xeon

The Clips Vary
- in time, from 20 seconds to 5 minutes,
- in bit-rate from 300 mbs, to 2500mbps

Variables am trying, to improve playback with:

time
- reducing longer clips to a series of shorter clips (some improvement noted)

HAP Quality Settings
- trying re-renders at 50% quality (within AV Batch encoder) (not noticing improvement from that)

HAP Chunking
- Have 10 cores on machine, have tried rendering with no chunks, 1, 2, 4, and 8, without noticing improvement...

Hi,
Please test the 3.7 beta build I PMd you. We fixed a performance issue with HAP.
Let me know
