It's a good answer.. I was being curious as the recent meshing I was trying on the .0000006 fillet file (rediculous) but also most recently on a terrain mesh where I am going to need millions and millions of polys... I guess this is why these things need the higher end workstations and minny super computers.. I'm going to upgrade my RAm soon for a few other poly apps..

Was there any way to get MoI any more than the 4 gigs?

Hi Burr,

> Was there any way to get MoI any more than the 4 gigs?

No, not currently - 4 gigs (usually more like around 3.6 or so actually) is the most a 32-bit program can address.

But it does help a lot to run on a 64-bit OS though - on a 32-bit OS you'll actually only be able to get 2 gigs (more like 1.6 usually) actually allocated but if you're on a 64-bit OS there will be 2 more gigs available for MoI to use, provided you have that much RAM actually of course.

Yeah, I only have 4 at the moment, but I did upgrade the OS to 64 bit, So will be adding more RAm for someother apps..

My current computer actually pushes to like 97/8 percent before MoI crashed... Something like 3.9 gigs or something... pretty good. :o

Maybe that was MoI with 3.6 and the other stuff using the other part.

Are you saying that OpenCL would useful for things like arrays, but not much else? In MoI I mean.

Yeah, it's just more generally suited for processing big arrays of somewhat more primitive data. For the most part that doesn't really fit in with a whole lot of areas in MoI as compared to something like render engines for example.

"Arrays" as in "groups of things".... Not the command "Array".

Hi Burr - yup, that's "array" in the programming sense of the word.
