4. Contributing Your Own Results To This Thread:
4.1 Before You Begin
Make sure the following Daz Studio settings are set to their defaults:
4.2 Running The Benchmark
Step 1: Close all running programs (including any open instances of Daz Studio) before continuing (failing to do so may artificially decrease your measured rendering performance.)
Step 2: Download this benchmarking scene and open it in Daz Studio.
Step 3: Go to Render Settings [pane] > Advanced > Hardware > Photoreal Devices and select only the device(s) you currently wish to test.
Step 4: Daz Studio 4.12.0.086 or earlier only In the same settings window make sure to select/deselect OptiX Prime Acceleration depending on your preference for this specific test run.
Step 5: Press Render and wait until the scene fully finishes rendering.
Step 6: optional Save (with a unique file name) the final rendered image for later reference.
Step 7: Close Daz Studio completely before continuing (failing to do so may make it impossible for you to fully report your benchmarking results.)
4.3 Reporting Your Results
Step 1: Start a new post in this thread and paste the following template into it:
System/Motherboard: BRAND MODEL
CPU: BRAND MODEL @ SPEED/stock (if left at defaults)
GPU: BRAND MODEL @ SPEED/stock (if left at defaults)
System Memory: BRAND MODEL CAPACITY TYPE @ SPEED
OS Drive: BRAND MODEL CAPACITY
Asset Drive: BRAND MODEL CAPACITY/Same (if same as OS)
Power Supply: BRAND MODEL WATTAGE
Operating System: EDITION VERSION BUILD
Nvidia Drivers Version: VERSION MODE
Daz Studio Version: VERSION BITS
Optix Prime Acceleration: STATE (Daz Studio 4.12.1.086 or earlier only)
Benchmark Results
DAZ_STATS
IRAY_STATS
Iteration Rate: (DEVICE_ITERATION_COUNT / DEVICE_RENDER_TIME) iterations per second
Loading Time: ((TRT_HOURS * 3600 + TRT_MINUTES * 60 + TRT_SECONDS) - DEVICE_RENDER_TIME) seconds
Step 2: Fill in System Configuration with your info. If specific branding information is unavailable for a particular component (eg. unbranded SSDs/RAM sticks in a pre-built system) simply omit it.
Step 3: Navigate to the Daz Studio log file (found in "AppData\Roaming\DAZ 3D\Studio4\log.txt" or "AppData\Roaming\DAZ 3D\Studio4 Public Build\log.txt" for the public beta), scroll to the very end of the file, and look for lines of text resembling the following:
DAZ_STATS:
2019-03-15 00:30:37.317 Finished Rendering2019-03-15 00:30:37.358 Total Rendering Time: 26 minutes 35.45 seconds
IRAY_STATS:
2019-03-15 00:32:31.455 Iray INFO - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend info : Device statistics:2019-03-15 00:32:31.455 Iray INFO - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend info : CUDA device 0 (GeForce GTX 1050): 1000 iterations, 6.813s init, 1584.264s render
Step 4: Copy these lines and replace DAZ_STATS and IRAY_STATS under Benchmark Results in the template with them. Then take special care in calculating the correct values for Iteration Rate and Loading Time. These two statistics are essential for understanding how your system's rendering performance compares to others' - not Total Rendering Time itself.
Total Rendering Time, because of the way it is computed by Daz Studio, is an invalid statistic for measuring rendering performance. Especially on systems with high-performance rendering hardware.
Step 5: optional Attach the rendered image from your benchmark run to your post.
Step 6: Submit your post and check back (by seeing which post this note under Table of Contents currently leads to) for it to be incorporated into the Performance Tables at the beginning of this thread (If you really want to help speed the update process along, copy the relevant tables from the beginning of this thread, incorporate your results, and then post the updated tables in the same post as your original benchmark results.)
5. About The Benchmarking Scene Used
5.1 Design Factors
In order to present the most robust benchmarking scene possible, the following key factors were first identified (as part of an extensive study on the relative advantages/pitfalls of a variety of existing DS/Iray benchmarking scenes freely available at the time) and then used as design paramaters for the creation of the scene used to generate all of this thread's relative performance data. These factors are:

6. Tips & Tricks
6.1 Submitting multiple benchmark results at the same time
If you want to contribute multiple sets of results from the same computer at the same time (eg. two back-to-back runs illustrating the performance difference between OptiX Prime On and OptiX Prime Off) format your post like this:
System/Motherboard: BRAND MODEL
CPU: BRAND MODEL @ SPEED/stock (if left at defaults)

LCJD, can you add the rest of the info (check the post before yours) to your post? Just Total Rendering Time isn't enough to caculate a final result for this benchmark. See here for where to find everything.
TheKD, could you add runs for each GPU rendering the scene separately as well? That way we have the whole set.
Also, it looks like the CPU stats are missing from your first test. They should be in your log file right after the info you posted. Here's an example of what it should look like:
CPU: 5 iterations, 0.077s init, 0.684s render
Didnt see a CPU line, so thought I missed it and ran it again. Still no CPU line. Maybe it has something to do with that new embree stuff, not sure what's up with that.
The log shows that it is using cpu, but it don't show the stats at the end. NVM, I see what happened. It now appeared like 2 minutes after I closed daz studio, apparently it just takes a few minutes to show up lol. Going to redo it, and add the other 2 renders for each gpu alone.
Awesome! Yeah, it's a little known fact that Iray functions almost completely independently of Daz Studio and oftentimes doesn't fully shut down until well after Daz Studio itself is closed.
ETA: And if you're feeling really adventurous, you could do a run with just your CPU as well (would love to see more AMD CPU benchmarks out there.)
Just to note, that's a lot of system info to ask for. A lot of people don't even know how to find their part info. I very seriously doubt the motherboard, RAM, and hard drives play any role in rendering, and as you will see, there is small problem with the bench I will get into. But here is my info.

So...I beat the RTX Titan with two 1080tis? If I am reading this right, that is not a good sign for RTX after all.
Anyway, here is the issue I think is going one with users. You ask users to have Texture Shaded on for the Viewport. However, this adds the loading time into the data, and loading times can vary based on other hardware. The new 4.12 beta loads much faster than any previous Daz, and this is giving people false impressions that they are getting faster, because this cuts about 30 or so seconds off the time that previous versions might take. I believe it why the person with the 2x 1070's is so happy right now in the SY bench, but their time is reflective of this faster loading more than the actual render speed. Using the Iray Preview equalizes this loading time, and thus eliminates unknown variables and better tests pure GPU rendering speed. That is why sickleyield asked people to use the Iray Viewport.
I had some spare time this morning, so I ran a few rounds of the benchmark. I am really interested to see more RTX results to see what difference enabling it in iray now makes.
I've run the results with 2 graphics cards, both separate and together, in DS 4.11.0.383 and in DS 4.12.33

With the multiple tests, I found the formatting of the information for this thread a little time-consuming, so I put together a spreadsheet where I could paste the information form the log file and have it show the calculations etc. If this is useful to anyone else, please download below. This is in .xlsx format. It will calculate for two cards at a time - I've left the info for my 980Ti on the first row for reference.
Bench result updated
They play a direct role in scene Loading Time, which is one of the main things this benchmark is designed to measure (other than pure rendering time.)
Yes, you're reading that right. Your particular two 1080ti's slightly beat a single watercooled Titan RTX with full RTX support.
The Titan RTX costs as much as it does because of how much memory it has - not because of how fast it is.
Because it's the Daz Studio default mode.
It adds loading time to the Loading Time statistic and nothing else as long as you include Device Statistics with your results. Hence why this benchmark asks for Device Statistics in addition to Total Rendering Time. As long as both things are reported measured rendering times are unaffected one way or another. The reason why the results you've posted so far:
Seem to indicate what you're saying is because you are missing Device Statistics for your first test case (OptiX On, Iray viewport.) Total Rendering Time can change significantly under different viewport modes. Render time under Device Statistics doesn't. Hence why we need to know both.
ETA: See this post. Something seems to be wrong with your 4.12 Beta installation in general.

Added some more, if I remember I am going to try cpu with optix off when I go to sleep or eat supper for completion sake.
The more the merrier!
General Question:
Should I remove those calculations entirely from the part you guys have to report? As long as Total Rendering Time and Device Statistics are there, I can just compute Rendering Performance and Loading Time for the graphs myself.
I would say leave them in for the added information. It was only fiddly for me because I ran 6 benchmarks.
I found the line
misc info : Iray RTX 2019.1.1, build 317500.2554, 08 Jun 2019, nt-x86-64.
I used the texture viewport for both of these runs. I simply forgot to grab the device stats line for the first. Looking at these times, though, if I did something wrong, then I don't see how I would beat the Titan at all. If Iray is a little faster now, but I am not seeing this performance gain because I did something wrong, it would be logical that I should not be near your RTX time to begin with. Also, if RTX is any factor, again, I shouldn't be so close. But both of my times beat the Titan here. Also Titan RTX isn't just about its 24gb VRAM though that is its big draw, it has more of all 3 core types than the 2080ti.
When I ran the tests with the Iray viewport, my total render times dropped below the 4 minute mark. But I did not post these.
I feel that trying to measure anything besides GPU rendering in the same place is a wild goose chase. There are too many variables to ever get good data on that. Being that nearly all of us are on PC, every single machine can be unique.
Could you add them in to your first run? That way I can integrate it into the tables at the top.
Assuming your DS 4.12 install is good, there's no reason to think that there's anything wrong with your results. It is entirely plausible for 2 1080ti's to come out ahead of a single Titan RTX due to sheer Cuda core counts alone (the Titan RTX has 4,608 - two 1080ti's have a combined 8,704.) And although Turing Cuda cores are significantly faster than Pascal ones, they aren't that much faster.
And RTX acceleration is unfortunately only a limited boon where this particular benchmarking scene (and others similar to it like the one that you did) are concerned because of the design constraints (see "memory requirements" under 4.1 Design Factors) necessary for a single benchmarking scene to be universally runnable on recent gen hardware. I'm still collecting data on it, but it looks like the only types of scenes which get major performance uplifts from RTX acceleration are ones which take hours to render on current gen high-end cards. Meaning that it is unfortunately a feature which is highly impractical to benchmark.
But render times in your Device Statistics stayed fundamentally the same (check if you doubt me.) Daz Studio's Total Rendering Time - despite its name - isn't a reliable measure of Iray rendering performance. However, render time under Iray's Device Statistics is. That is the essential number to know.
@RayDAnt - In the first table, one of the figures has been entered incorrectly.
Currently, it reads:
The 7.904 figure is the loading time for that combination. The correct figure is 6.392. I noticed because currently the first table shows the 1080ti/980ti being faster than 2x1080ti.
Very interesting to see some numbers for different cards. Thank you for putting in the time to enter all of this data. I'm considering replacing the 980TI in my system with a 2080Ti, so these figures are very useful as I make my way to a decision.
Oops, posted this in the wrong thread. Here's my bench for 4.12 beta:

Fixed it. Thanks!
Glad to hear it! That was one of the primary purposes I had here (provide useful information to people considering GPU purchases for DS/Iray use specifically.)
@talidesade can you add your current windows, nvidia driver, and Daz Studio versions into your post with your benchmark as well? That's the bare minimum I need to to enter your results into the tables at the top of the thread. Also whether or not you have OptiX Prime enabled (that still matters in 4.12 Beta if you have a GTX card.)

I’ve been kinda scratching my head trying to figure out what we’re trying to accomplish with this effort. Apparently it was mentioned in another thread that we’re trying to make a comparison guide for users to see how well the cards perform to help in purchasing decisions?
But the excellent migenius article basically says that Iray/RTX performance is totally dependent upon scene content (“complexity”), and the only way to benchmark RTX/Iray performace is by each user trying RTX/Iray out on scenes that represent their typical complexity (whatever that means) to get a rough idea. And they’re saying the performance range they’ve seen is a staggering 5% - 300%, depending on scene content.
So why would we gather so much detailed hardware/software info to come up with a highly accurate render time comparison, down to a fraction of a second, for a single scene (which may or may not take much advantage of the RTX technology), when users’ actual results for their personal scenes could be anywhere in that 5% - 300% range? We get GPU render time comparisons accurate to 0.01 second for this benchmark scene using all of this detailed data, but a user may find their results for their particular scenes are not even close to what these benchmarks indicate. “Hey, you said there’s 300% improvement, how come I’m only getting 5% on my scenes?”.
And it sounds like we’re trying to find the most “complex” scene in the store as a benchmark, and I doubt we even know what scene characteristics are needed to get the most RTX/Iray performance gain. And why do we even care about the complex scene and the most performance gain, when it may be irrelevant to the average user?
Personally, I think the migenius article puts the nail in the coffin of standard, single scene benchmarks like this. Like I said long ago, this stuff is incredibly complex, and as you start to add other RTX-related features into the mix (Tensor de-noising, materials, physics), it becomes virtually impossible to find a single (or two, or three) benchmarks to be of much (any) use. My biggest surprise with the migenius article was that I wasn’t conservative enough in suggesting these benchmarks are, at best, ballparks within maybe +/- 15 seconds or 10% or whatever for comparison purposes. Wow, 5% to 300% variation? Amazing.
