What is your Settings->Max Number of Polygons set to? And how much CPU RAM do you have pls?

Hi Paul,
I have 32 Gb of ram and a graphic card with 11 Gb. My max number of polygon is 8000000. If I increase to 80000000 sometimes I have another error. So..which is the correct number?

Hi Paul,
with this error the number is 8000000 but as I said if I increase this number to 80000000 sometimes I have another type of error.
Now I'm trying with 30000000 and for now, everything seems to work fine.

Hi Fabrizio

8 million Polygons will certainly be too low. I think the default set by the plugin is 10 million. The plugin actually caps the maximum value at 80 million, but I think you would need 64GB of CPU RAM to handle that amount. So 30 to 40 million would be the best value if you have 32GB of RAM.
