Hi Clay We are using VPB terain build from a 40 cm raster and 10 m elevation covering roughly a 400 by 400 km area. this results in a database that is about 500 GB depending on build options. This dataset runs fine on a gaming rig.
We are using UTM projected terrains so far though, cant say if whole world stuff will add problems. brgs.
