For more information on tessellation, see Introduction to Tessellation and Approximation.

You can turn these optimization settings on or off in the Memory and Performance Options section of the Render Settings window.

Set raytracing

Though raytracing quality is set by the options in the Raytracing Quality section of the Render Settings window (see Set raytracing quality), you can set scene optimization options in the Memory and Performance Options section of the Render Settings window.

For more information on raytracing, see Raytraced shadows.

Set multiple processors

You can control the number of processors for interactive rendering. To render with multiple processors, see Network render with Maya software.
