an inevitable crash.
About 4 days into running a set of 1425 images on ultra/ultra, which I didn’t think was an issue, at least that size dataset hasn’t been before, I saw something bad looming not too far ahead.
Even the emergency adding of 30GB of Paging file when things were looking real bad, didn’t stop the crash. As the danger point was approached a second time, I’d left it a bit too late, and wasn’t able to get into settings to increase it again.
I’m not sure why so much memory was being consumed, I’ve never seen that much in use with much larger datasets.

My paging file certainly had a huge workout, it’s no doubt the right time to reboot the computer!
