(In case you scrolled down a Google presentation: bug 1414890. After today's "I have to like positive Quantum tweets" marathon, my GPU process now takes 5.6 GB RAM + 5.7 GB shared memory.)

Do you still run into memory issues? We've fixed a number of issues since this bug was filed.

It has been a long time, and I have not run into this issue in a while.

Great!
