164 frames of animation
1 frame rendered on:
system A: 2 minutes on a 3.1GHz i7 iMac, 16 GB ram
system B: 5 minutes on 3GHz i5-4590S PC, 8 GB ram
all 164 frames rendered on 15 system B computers. total time = 54.6 minutes. (5 minutes * 164 frames)/15 = 54.6 minutes.
time if 164 frames were rendered on single system B computer = 13.6 hours
time if 164 frames were rendered on 15 system A computers = 22 minutes
time if 164 frames were rendered on single system A computer = 5.5 hours
