I guess it's normal, as memory is allocated to each tile anyway, I suppose
for positionning and such (I'll let programmers tell you exactly what
happens). Increase the number of faces and you will see that the RAM use
doesn't change much for a given number of tiles, which proves that
instanciation works correctly.

Note that an additional benefit of using a single mesh is that you'll be
able to use the same mesh for both panes, thus cutting RAM use in half.
