But it must be frustrating for those looking for fixes.

Yes, it is frustrating.

I didn't get from your post that you in particular were holding out an attitude towards those of us with the memory-usage problem......that is to say: those of us that dare to talk about it.

Unfortunately, some others do seem to have such an attitude.

Once we get past that little bump, then we can -- as you say -- begin to discuss solutions.

sigh

At the moment, the only "official" work-arounds are:

1. Upgrade your RAM (not an option for everyone)
2. Turn off texture filtering
3. Lower your max texture size
4. Reduce bucket size
5. Turn off other bells & whistles in Poser
6. End unnecessary processes in Windows to free up memory
7. Save & exit; save & exit; save & exit; save & exit;.............................

If anyone can add to this list -- it would be appreciated.
