The warning " Num samples per thread reduced to 32768, rendering might be slower " is a critical notification typically found in or other CUDA/RTX-based rendering logs. It "Configuring with 100

Because each thread is now responsible for fewer samples, it may need to restart, reschedule, or synchronize more frequently. This can increase overhead (context switching, memory flushes, or kernel launch overhead) and reduce overall throughput—hence slower rendering.
