I assume you're referring to your statement here: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?t=3121 Where you say moving from a StateSet per Geode to a shared StateSet saved you 250MB. We don't have any details on how you're creating those StateSets, but the StateSet itself is only about 192 bytes, so the rest of the memory savings probably come from all the StateAttributes you must be adding to the StateSets. Perhaps if you shared the StateAttributes as much as possible, you could still use a StateSet per Geode (such as for adding specular) with a much smaller memory footprint (closer to 36MB for your 200000 object model). I'm assuming a lot about what you were doing, though, so feel free to shoot me down if some of my assumptions are wrong :) -- Bryan Thrall FlightSafety International bryan.thr...@flightsafety.com _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list osg-users@lists.openscenegraph.org http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
