This is a Windows relevant question:
Is there a way of utilising more of the system Ram for Resolve, taking it off what appears to be reserved for Fusion?
I never use Fusion and notice that I start with -
System Memory of 32GB.
Max out Resolve to 24 GB.
Limit Fusion to "6GB".
I watch the Task Manager Memory usage when I'm working on a project and it never seems to go above 16GB/50%. I know that Resolve wont use more than 75% of Ram, but it never seems to get up to that point.
I have 1200-1300 clips in the media library, and have maybe 200+ clips on the Timeline. When in Edit mode I presume that Resolve is using/making Timeline clip icons/proxies and putting them in Ram.
Each time I zoom in and out of the Timelime I notice my CPU's max out making the icons, my Ram gets up to about 16GB use, but never seems to go beyond. Its like I have a wasted 15GB of Ram.
I'd love to be able to turn off Fusion and free up the extra Ram to stop the Timeline icons in Edit being recomputed(?).
I know "Bypassing Color Grades and Fusion Effects" means they are not computed, but it doesn't appear to free up the Ram. It's like I have 6GB Ram tied up going to waste.
