even assuming that each sphere is only 1 byte (and probably it's about 12-
20 and more) :
4 GB ram (max virtual memory in Win32) = 4*1000*1000*1000
= 4e9
so... NONE PC computer can render this scene (out of VMemory), to render it
it would need cluster of about
1e12/1e9 = 1000 computers 4 GB RAM each to store entire scene in ram
not to mention parse-time :)
sorry, You should re-design Your's idea probably :/
