[Radiance-general] RE: cygwin and vmware

[Jeffrey McGrew]

I've found that Radiance on Cygwin is great for learning and for 
setting up your Rad's and Rifs. But when I got to do a large 
rendering, I then hand it over to a G4 Mac (since I don't have a Linux 
box anymore). It's just been wonderful for learning, but I too have 
had the segfaults sometimes when dealing with large RAD files. I've 
taken to exporting my models from Revit to AutoCAD then using a LISP 
routine to then export each layer out to a separate RAD file to try to 
get around this, and it works pretty well.

How is the speed with VMWare? I'd love to use it rather than trying to 
make my laptop a dual-boot, however I do a lot of heavy 3D and need 
whatever speed I can get sometimes...

Thanks!
