Sorry about that! I have a honors thesis student who needed some last-minute GP runs for his thesis, which is due tomorrow, so I started a bunch of runs. That said, I don't think many started after right now will finish by tomorrow, so I reduced my priority to less than 1. Any new renders that start should have priority once a GP run finishes.<br class=""><br class=""></div>
If you're also on a tight schedule and need these sooner, let me know and I can kill off some of the runs.<br class=""><br class=""></div>
Best,</div>
