I have written an Xdmf file that uses the 3D CoRectMesh to display a montage of 54 gray scale images. They are laid out in a 9x6 fashion. Each Image is about 1292x968 pixels. We have run stitching algorithms on the images to find their correct coordinates in XYZ space so that they will form the montage correctly.
The raw amount of memory is 67,535,424 bytes. If that has to be as RGBA for rendering then it is 270,141,696 bytes. Then ParaView has to create a "cell" for each pixel and then some other stuff. At one point ParaView spiked to 120GB of RAM and then fell back to about 36GB of RAM. This seems a bit excessive to me. This is with ParaView 4.3.1 on a Windows 8.1 workstation. Am I doing something wrong? Just seems like a lot of memory. Are their alternate ways of writing the Xdmf file so that each image is a single cell perhaps? Thanks for any insights. I can make the data set available to anyone who needs it. _________________________________________________________ Mike Jackson [email protected] BlueQuartz Software www.bluequartz.net Principal Software Engineer Dayton, Ohio
