Rendering Question

Is there a way to start a rendering then close out the model and have the rendering continue to render? I can save quite a bit of ram by closing the model while rendering.

Thanks

Thank you for the links!!

I always render using the command-line (geek that I am, I actually use Linux “makefiles” …), and always render to MultiLayer OpenEXR files. (Except the final render, which goes to non-multilayer files. These files now become the master-source from which “distribution files” are then produced.)
