Hi,
I am having a bit of memory problems with corona. I am doing arch viz scene that has lot's of trees scattered with forest pro. I have previously used vray and had no problems with forest pro. Now that I am using forest pro with corona I am running out of memory in scenes that I could easily render with vray. Are there any tips to decrease memory foot print when dealing with forest pro. I have 32 gigs of memory and my scene takes 8 gigs of memory. Still I run out of memory. That seems a bit odd.
Why Corona does not support forest color? I have used it alot with vray and it's a shame I can't use it anymore.

Are you sure Forest Color does not work? I use it all the time with forest pack and Corona 1.7

I use Forest Pro with Corona and use Forest Colour to apply tint.... works fine for me.
As for RAM usage, I won't even attempt to use Corona with less than 64GB RAM. It's very RAM hungry.

Not saying that Corona wouldn't benefit of memory optimizations but 32 gigs isn't much or sufficient in many cases by todays standards. And yes Forest Color (as well as Forest Edge) work just fine.
This is a far stretch as you specifically focus on memory, but have you checked bitmap paging (and proxies or whatever that second one is) is turned off?

32 Gig, is perfectly adequate, apart from use with Corona

Yes, it's the most important corona problem for production use. I hope in version 2 will solved.
