Quote - Bob, I render in large dimensions fairly often; Firefly will use noticeably more memory for larger pixel dimension renders, though it isn't linear, e.g., doubling the pixel area increases RAM usage, but less than twice the previous amount.

Thanks for that, I hadn't investigated render size vs. memory at all thoroughly. Must do so next time I have Resource Monitor running during a render. I'm assuming there will be a buffer for the final image, which should grow linearly with the number of pixels, but all the other scene elements will take up the same amount of space.
