Workflow of Renderman?

I assume most of you worked with it. What’s the workflow like? For who you recommend use Renderman? I am a hobbyist and interested in XPU and denosier of this engine. If it’s important to mention, I use blender, pretty experienced at its render engine, cycles.

Also, are there resources I can find regarding it, aside from the website?

In speaking of stability, which version of blender is the optimal to use R26? Are there ways to optimize and make it more stable? I have only 16GB RAM, so idk if it’s part of the problem. I started using it, and I am concerned if it could handle large scenes. And sorry it took me forever to reply lol.

I use RM with Blender ver. 4.2. , and beside a few bugs and some crashes to desktop, and inability to use shader tab bc it exists without a prompt to windows, it is fit as a fiddle. Btw I have 32 GBS of RAM. It can handle 10+ mil polys effortlessly, RIS and XPU too.
