I'm worried about CPU and GPU features getting away from each other in Cycles.<div>I understand that for an open source render, the CUDA only solution (like Octane) is not ideal, but tons of Cycle's users are investing in GPU now (like myself).</div>
<div><br></div><div>The way to go is an hybrid solution, like iRay and Arion. </div><div><br></div><div>Adriano A. Oliveira</div><div><div><div><div><div><div></div></div></div></div></div>

Hello blenderheads/developers,<div>Since features such as the new SSS, hair rendering and volume rendering in cycles aren't gonna work with GPUs(CUDA-enabled ones)-correct me if i'm wrong.</div><div>Would there be a possibility of enabling the CPU for cpu only features + GPU for gpu accelerated features at the same time.</div>
<div><br></div><div>....</div><div><br></div><div>Not related to blender cycles:</div><div>is there anyone that can create documentation on the wiki for optimizing blender.</div><div>There could be a wiki page for optimizing blender at compile time i.e. during the compilation stage of blender for those who'd like to compile blender SVN</div>
<div>this page for instance would declare where to put the optization flags for each platform i.e. freeBSD,Linux, osX, and windows</div><div>as well as </div><div>standard compilation of blender@compile time</div><div>Medium optimizations for blender@compile time</div>
<div>Then extreme optimizations for blender@compile time</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>And then another page that aims to document optimizations whilst working inside blender i.e. tile sizes, textures sizes, baking etc </div>
