Looks like it is definitely a material problem. Had this issue in the past. Also seen raytrace material in a vray scene do that also.

Hi CGA users... I am looking at a new Sumsung 1TB SSD Hard drive and trying to get my head around the fact that they are way faster and how that could affect render times. They are getting somewhat affordable and but on the other hand hesitant to pay a few 100$ to find out if it's worth the investment in the end (render time saved). I've been reading that the speed increase in system performance could be up to 10x faster than a 7200rpm SATA. So does that now make your cpu(s) the weakest link in the system? Do your render times improve having everything on the same SSD drive (ie maps, proxies, etc..)? Curious to get advice from the pros out here.
