Have you tried using the MeshOptimizers in osgUtil ? I can rememeber a report that using them could result in very large performance improvements on verty large models. From memory the vertex data is organised to reduce cache misses etc on the video card.

This model has about 28-million tris. I wrote an offline spatializer to improve culling. Every geode has after the spatializer process about 1-million tris. The size of the model is 2.4 GB - Memory on my NV Quadro 5000 is about 2.5 GB. Sync to VBlank is on. Here my problem: When I'm start the osgviewer it took about 30-40 seconds - that's okay. The viewer also ran with an acceptable frame rate. Everything fine. (Stats: Draw 2.3 GPU: 27.2). If I move Lucy so that only a half or a fourth of the model is displayed the frame rate increased (culling active). BUT if I move the model back - that everything is visible again the frame rate is not that I was expected. (Stats: Draw: 2.68 GPU: 1000.0). Any suggestions? I thought - through the culling process the culled geodes could be deleted on the GPUs memory and they have to reload - but after waiting 120-500 seconds the frame rate doesn't get better. Again any suggestions? ... Thank you!
