If you observe a third-party SSD misbehaving, feel free to provide as much information as you can at our bugtracker .ĪPST is short for Autonomous Power State Transition, a feature found in many modern SSDs.
It currently only improves power management of non-Apple NVMe SSDs, but we will also be willing to fix other SSD incompatibility issues. Next Upgrade? eGPU - I'd like to offload the longer renderings an animations to an eGPU, so I'm investigating hacks, patches, and/or Windows bootcamp interface with a Razer Core box and Nvidia cards.Today we are publishing NVMeFix, a set of patches for IONVMeController.

Worth it? - Definitely! Paired with a 12.9" 2018 iPad Pro, I have an extremely powerful, portable 2 screen workstation whether at the office, in a coffee shop, at a hotel, on an airplane, (or now in my basement Corona bunker), that allows me do all my professional 2D and 3D design work, in a portable package less than 1" thick and under 10 lbs (including my laptop bag and accessories.) Expensive?: My MacBook build retails at $4200, but B&H Photo had a $400 discount, I opened a new freelance business banking account ($300 bonus) and a business credit card ($500 bonus) which I used to purchase it, and then with the capital expense against my taxes (~$1100 tax savings), the effective total price was only about $1900. KeyShot Auto Idle After Rendering Queue: I was also pleasantly surprised to learn KeyShot now ramps down after finishing long renderings and queues, especially overnight, rather than continuing to run until I'd wake up to shut it down. Fortunately, it shut itself off with the battery at 1or 2%. Found this out by accident when I forgot to plug in my power supply for an overnight rendering. Battery Power Only: All out at 16 cores, it lasts only about 55-60 mins. Then I reattached the power supply, but the battery took about 25 mins to charge an additional 1%, so there wasn't much extra power available. I then unplugged the power supply with all the programs still running until the battery dropped to 75%.

I went out of my way to challenge it by running KeyShot 8 and 9 simultaneously, all cores on KeyShot 9 running a rendering, all cores on KeyShot 8 setting up a scene, plus jumping around and manipulating large documents in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop and running a Youtube video on Safari. Power Draw: No problems with it drawing power faster than the power supply could provide as encountered by Richardfunnel.
FPS: Like Figure1a, I'm getting around 150 fps with the camera bench mark. Time in Use: I've had it 6 weeks now and it's running like a dream. A big thanks to Figure1a, Richardfunnel, mattjgerard, and Furniture_Guy for their posts on this thread!

I promised I'd follow up with my KeyShot performance on my new 2019 MacBook Pro 16". The issue seems to be exacerbated when plugged into power strips (both mine and while traveling), so I'd say the issue is resolved with that caveat. No shutdowns, just painfully slow interactions OS-wide.
So either my brick was faulty, or power strips aren't all made the same (which is a likely possibility).īr3ttj, to follow up on your question: when the battery drains, everything starts lagging and slowing down. One change this time around is that I'm plugged directly into the wall instead of using a power strip. No drop in power so far, and the system seems to be stable. So far today, I'm testing a scene on this laptop with a cycling animation using caustics at 100% usage in KeyShot. To be safe, they replaced my power brick (at my insistence) since it was the only thing that they didn't test. According to them, the machine is working fine.

The Apple store ran a bunch of diagnostics, both with a remote and local series of tests to tax the machine including overnight. To start with, this laptop isn't my primary computer (using a Threadripper workstation for most of my work), so this has only really been an issue while doing KeyShot training.

Just a quick update from my end, got my laptop back last night.
