"...6 GB or 8 GB memory for VUE..."
Is it a JOKE ???
This is far from being a joke. I have spent the afternoon trying to work with Vue 7 on a Laptop that has 4GB of ram under Vista 32. I had a good number of OOM (Out Of Memory) errors, while I had almost forgotten their existence with my 8 Gb 64 bit system.
If you want to work with large (2048+) terrains with multiple textures, use large imported meshes or do both at the same time, you need 6 to 8 GB of ram and a 64 bit or you can expect a wild ride.
I noticed, however, that Vue crashed after eating about 1.4 GB of ram, even if the system had some memory remaining. I wonder if there is a way to allot the normal 2 GB to Vue, either in Windows or in the Vue preferences. Have not found it.
