First, since "Avatar" an amateur doesn't seem to have any chance to generate
real 3D art anymore - at least this is my opinion.
All we do is just for fun. For me this insight is kind of relieving.

So I forget having to make nice images - if an idea works, fine - otherwise it
gets stored...

Second, I use win7 and swapping is nearly impossible nowadays.
My main render machine has 32 GB and I plan to upgrade to the maximum of 64 GB
(sic!). This is not only because of the motherboard, my processor (i7-5960X 3.0
GHz) doesn't support more than that IIRC.

I haven't seen a 40 GB scene yet, but perhaps I generate one - it should be easy
without meshes...

Happy rendering
Norbert
