Title: Ram problem
Post by: Vyacheslav Volkov on 2017-07-04, 15:12:18

Hi, I have 32 gb of ram, and something strange is going on.

As you can see(image attached) corona only uses ~11 gb of ram, but in task manager, you can see that I am almost out of ram.

There is no other tasks running in the background who could take rest of the ram.

Does anyone know how i can fix this and why is this happening?

i had the same problem. after hours of tinkering with the scene it appears the culprit in my case was the interactive lightmix. after removing all light select elements ram use returned to normal.

OK this is good to know, I'm rapidly running out of RAM on a scene I'm working on at the moment so I'll have to make sure to disable the lightmix feature for the high res version.
