Appleseed is an open-source production renderer focused on physically-based global illumination rendering engine primarily designed for animation and visual effects.
Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.
