Warning : ginstance needs to reference an object

[AlanEddie]

Hey there, getting this warning

ginstance needs to reference an object

Scene is rendering locally, but the warning may be causing a delay on the render farm (Not sure).

The instances are MASH, and are instance cached. The original item is hidden in scene.

Rendering on renderfarm but taking an age... just wondering is it to do with the interpretation of the instances...

how many warnings? One? It's unlikely that would slow down a render. Check a detailed Arnold log for a render.

Just repeating, but no impact on performance, using instance cache and loaded in Alembic. It's not a problem, just trying to get rid of all error messages for a clean render.
