Ran a similar test. As i expected, your Vue (or PC or OS or all) has problems which mine doesn't. I'm using latest build of Vue 5 Infinite, WinXP Pro SP-2, 2GB memory. Page File setup (virtual memory): C: = 100 - 2048 MB, D: (an identical 2nd drive) = same 100 - 2048MB.
- New scene. 74% resources reported.
- Load 1 Poser 6 V3SAE + NativeAmerican clothing (26.3MB) each. Don't have any huge Poser figures. 64% resources. Loaded same again for 2 figures. 64% resources.
- Moved 1 figure. 63% resources. Moved each figure in turn, for a total of 15 moves. Stayed at 63% resources, never changed.
- Deleted 1 figure (causing it to be stored in my 5 levels of undo). 54% resources.
- Undid deletion. 34% resources. Deleted other figure. 35% resources. Undid deletion. 34%.
- Swapped figures in and out of storage by deleting/undoing several times. Same resources.
- Imported 2 more of same figure. 37% resources (Vue seems to be recovering some resources)
- Loaded 5,000 unit square plane. Applied checkerboard material. 39% resources.
- Created an Ecosystem on the plane material, populated with 38,109 V3s (same figure, but in .vob format). 34% resources. 7, 050,485,761 polys reported. Vue is still reponding briskly and no problems.
