Network rendering - memory between master and slaves

Hi

I'm using network rendering. My scene needs about 5GB GPU memory.

My master computer is GTX Titan(6GB) and the other slaves are GTX 780(3GB).

It worked. But I think it is not stable.

So, I have a question.

Does the network render use only GPU perfomance of slave computers or GPU perfomance and GPU memory of slave computers?

My setting about network rendering is right?

Thank you in advance.

I can't understand how 5gb scene could work on 3gb cards (in Your slave machine). Are You sure the scene eats 5gb? maybe scene is under 3Gb & other 2GB are used by other software?..

Hi. glimpse

I checked again, You are right. Do not work. It was just connected.
