What they mean is that it was rendered in a way in which it took 1 minute to render 1 minute of footage.

Instead of a typical movie rendering which can take a long time for just a single frame. Like toy story "Our original toy story frames were averaging four hours, which is 240 minutes" - https://www.quora.com/How-much-faster-would-it-be-to-render-...

It just took a cluster of a thousand computers to do it.


It was run on a single PC with the following hardware: Processor: Octacore Intel Core i7 6th Generation GPU: Nvidia GeForce Titan X (3x SLI)

A tweet above says it was on a GTX 980 in 1440


Actually I was joking.
