[sldev] Issues with TextureBuffer size

[Gary Wardell]

Hi,

I have a 256MB nVidia FX 5700 card and I dind't notice any crashing problems with Nicolaz's version that the release version
didn't have.

I will say that I was monitoring the working set size and I crashed, or really hung, well before all of ram was used.  And
according to the debug window, If I was reading it right, not all of the texture cache was used either.  In fact, I could run for
several minutes after all of the textures were downloaded before it hung.

I believe there either the hanging has to do with something else, or there are multiple causes for the hanging.

What I do know is it sure is annoying!!!
