    Try realizing ten thousand mesh instances in Blender and watch that sucker eat the rest of your RAM like it’s got a pebble in its shoe.

    I did that on my work PC with 128 GB memory (originally built for esports shit) and it still wasn’t enough.

        It was also supposed to be an all-in-one recording/streaming computer for university events, and they had to use the budget for something. It ended up being used as a proxmox host for a while, then it was handed off to me. Now the most resource-intensive thing it runs is a Windows 11 VM that I torture mercilessly use for experiments. It rarely gets to 10% memory utilization.

            It has an i9 10980, so about 4-5 years old. It was built before I was hired.
