Is there a certain way to set up the LOD's that go into the database? It
seems that the LODs are taking up too much memory so when trying to load
it crashes everything. I have more than enough memory and space to run
the necessary database so that's not the issue.

Do you mean your run the osgpagedlod example on your database?  Or
created a database using PagedLOD?

The whole point of osg::PagedLOD and osgDB::DatabasePager is that they
should help with enable the viewing of massive databases by paging it
in rather than loading all in memory at once.  If the database is
poorly conditioned for paging then you won't get best results.  In the
case of the example its written to be an example of how to create and
use PagedLOD nodes rather than something generally applied to
databases, I wouldn't expect it work optimally - creating proper paged
databases requires quite a bit of processing, well beyond the scope of
simple example.

W.r.t CPU's to get maxed out, how many screens/GPU are you using? Is
vsync on?
