	Sounds like it's a custom python script; can you send me:

		1) The complete log output irush is showing
		   (even if it's partial) after the render completes

		2) A copy of your python script so I can see how
		   vray is being invoked, etc.

		3) A copy of that same log as you see it in the
		   text editor, presumably a complete log.

	What kind of machine (windows?linux?mac?) is irush running
	on that gives the incomplete results, and what kind of
	file server (windows or linux/mac running samba)?

	BTW, when you see the 'complete' results of the log
	in the text editor, are you running the text editor
	on the same machine irush is running on?

	If so, that would be really weird; irush is using the same
	system calls that other unix tools like cat(1)/more(1)/tail(1)
	vi(1) all use, so results should consistent from the same machine.

	If, however, you're getting different results because you're
	using the text editor on a different machine (or even the same
	machine, but ssh'ed into another box), then that would almost
	surely be an issue with oplocks on the server, a client side
	caching problem. In that case the file server is probably
	running samba, and likely irush is running on a windows box,
	or a mac using samba mounts to the server.
