Zaycrow - good post

To save some video card space, you can use your onboard graphics card to be the normal display adapter, and then your cuda card can be used 100% for rendering memory.

The texturemap number limit is important too.  I'm a big big fan of combining all the skin textures into a single uv group and using one texture.  This resolves a bunch of issues, including some ZBrush ones!  I posted elsewhere about a script to do this (basically puts the head in the top left quadrant, torso top right, arms bottom left, etc.  There is a script on sharecg for V4 and I have written one for Alyson and Antonia.

3m trees: This is done with "instancing" and handled within Octane on the card rather than in the Poser scene, so will hopefully be implemented in the plugin.
