SYSTEMPAL MAC HOW TO

The Nvidia card is being shown as 'inactive' and I'm still trying to figure out what exactly that means and how to get the card 'active' again.

So what iStat shows me is that my CPU is being run in place of the 980 Ti. Anyway, if any other Mac folks out there are following along with this, there's an app called iStat Menus that will show you what's going on with non-built-in components like the 980 Ti.

SYSTEMPAL MAC MAC OS

I did a lot of hunting today and actually did finally find an app I could download and use - but you're right that there's nothing built-in to a Mac OS that will do that. 03:03:59.468 WARNING: /src/pluginsource/DzIrayRender/dzneuraymgr.cpp(307): Iray ERROR - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend error: CUDA device 0 (GeForce GTX 980 Ti): an illegal memory access was encountered (while de-allocating memory) 03:03:59.462 WARNING: /src/pluginsource/DzIrayRender/dzneuraymgr.cpp(307): Iray ERROR - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend error: CUDA device 0 (GeForce GTX 980 Ti): an illegal memory access was encountered (while de-allocating memory) 03:03:59.461 Iray INFO - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend info : CUDA device 0 (GeForce GTX 980 Ti): 0 iterations, 185.299s init, 0.010s render 03:03:59.461 Iray INFO - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend info : Device statistics: 03:03:58.722 Loaded image Environment 1.hdr ' 20:45:25.140 WARNING: /src/pluginsource/DzIrayRender/dzneuraymgr.cpp(307): Iray ERROR - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend error: CUDA device 0 (GeForce GTX 980 Ti): device cannot be used as it does not support mapped memory (canMapHostMemory)' UPDATE: The last render I tried to run also had this: ' 18:03:43.090 WARNING: /src/pluginsource/DzIrayRender/dzneuraymgr.cpp(307): Iray WARNING - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend warn : The 'progressive_rendering_filtering' scene option is no longer supported.' 18:01:55.934 Iray INFO - module:category(IRAY:RENDER): 1.0 IRAY rend info : iray photoreal CPU fallback is enabled.'

I don't know if it's something that's slowing my renders down, but could someone tell me what it means? Here they are:

I need to track down what's going on or what's changed. Now they're taking an hour each and it's slowing my workflow to a painful crawl. five or six updates at least. I used to be able to render simple pose promos in a matter 5-10 minutes. I have updated to the latest beta version of Daz Studio that DIM offers, but this has been happening for a while and hasn't changed over the course of the last. I've been seeing really slow render times on even small 800x1200 renders.
