Changing the number of faces doesn't affect the memory use, so instanciation
works as it should.
I guess it's the texture statement as it's defined for each tile. Removing
all the individual statements cuts the memory use in half.
One possibility to solve this would be to use the cells pattern to cover the
entire mesh instead of texture each tile independently. Just scale the
pattern to match the tile size.
Great macro by the way, it should be very handy.
