# Improve Performance
|
|
|
|
Voxel reconstruction and voxel rendering are very computation-intensive. Here are some tips to improve the add-on's performance.
|
|
|
|
## Use Low-Resolution Data as Preview
|
|
|
|
The resolution of voxels geometrically affects computational efficiency. Enabling Resample on O Layer can greatly improve calculation speed. You can uncheck it when you need to render for real. The Layer Nodes panel in the Bioxel Nodes tab lists all O Layers added in the current geometry nodes. You can uniformly manage whether Resample is enabled and the degree of resampling.

|
## Balanced Rendering Settings
|
|
|
|
I list some settings that have the greatest impact on volume rendering, so you can find the most suitable balance for your needs.
|
|
|
|
- **Light Paths > Max Bounces > Volume** affects the number of bounces for volume data. The higher the value, the more transparent the volume data appears.
|
|
|
|
- **Light Paths > Max Bounces > Transparent** affects the number of times transparent surfaces are transmitted. The higher the value, the more transparent the transparent surfaces appear.
|
|
|
|
- **Volumes > Step Rate Render | Viewport** affects the step size of volume rendering. The smaller the value, the more detailed the volume data appears.
|
|
|
|
Bioxel Nodes provides some render setting presets for quick configuration. Click the top menu **Bioxel Nodes > Render Setting Presets**, including Performance (left), Balance (center), and Quality (right). Here is a comparison:

## Rendering with EEVEE
|
|
|
|
EEVEE doesn't render volume as well as Cycles, but it does have the advantage of rendering volumetric data. If you want to get a clear slice view, it is even a better choice. EEVEE's real-time rendering makes it possible to create interactive content in Blender. |
