Hi Torben and Xenon, I was studying OSG sources... (as usual way to study OSG)
> BTW: What are your performance requirements? Main requirement: I need to load base level geometry and base resolution textures ASAP, f.ex <1s. I will probably inline base-level texture data into the base-level scene database. Then, paging of geometry: Seems that high-res geometry need to stay in separate file, otherwise it would be loaded at start-up, slowing down the opening process, that has to complete in 1s. The last goal - to page in and page out textures depending on spatial proximity. The testing model is 72MB of jpegs and they take approximately 4.5GB when decompressed to memory while using several resolutions for each texture. What archtecture would you propose? I guess, I will need to place high-res textures to external files. And high-res geometry as well to avoid them being parsed on start-up and prolonging opening process. (My initial wish was to have everything in one file.)
