VRAM Memory Usage

Wedge_4496906

Hello community!

Is there an easy way, how I can see the VRAM memory usage of the scene I am building at the moment?

Is there are a certain rule I can follow like....

- one Genesis 8 character takes about 2 Gig, the background takes 4 gig or anything like that?

How much more memory do the Genesis 9 characters take, by the way?

At the moment I often feel limited by 10GB of Video RAM on my grapics card.

Is there a certain amount of Videoram to get rid of all the problems?

By having a 16GB card for example (RTX 3060), could you then build a scene with 8 HD characters plus all kinds of props and environments without ever caring about RAM limitations again?

How much memory do you have / need?

Would you recommend a tool like scene optimizer? Is there an even better tool than this one?

Thanks for your help :)

Basically if the figures are more than 10 or 20 feet away, nobody is going to see pores in their skin {so the normals, etc. can be ditched}.

From what I've read in the forums, even the largest rig can run into memory problems if one is loading too much ;-)
