e-on software has Release 1 of its new LumenRT rendering plugin for SketchUp out. There is even a new auto-scale lighting feature that can improve performance by 30% to 300% depending on the size of the model with a resulting tradeoff of lower lighting quality.
The new build also adds several quality and reliability enhancements to improve overall performance and stability. As an example, new optimizations in Release 1.2 can lead to a 14x gain on pre-processing time!
