Description

Description

Chunking frames together is a commonly supported solution for amortizing application and scene loading overhead, and Open Job Description should support it. This RFC adds chunking to job templates with the goal that it be easy to author and read templates that work well with both contiguous frame ranges and pick up renders, and is not to much work to implement.
