Question about Graphic Card and Memory use

Hello,

in first, sorry for my english.

I have a question.
I'm testing the demo version of Cinema 4D plugin of Octane.

My graphic card : Quadro K5200 (8Go).

When I'm watching il the live Viewer, in the infos, I have this :
Quadro K5200[P][3.5] / %98 / 55°C
Memory : 8192 MB
Used : 111 MB / Free : 7126 MB

So, if I understand, 111 MB of the graphic card are used on the total of 8Go ?
Is it normal ?

I will try in the settings with Render Priority to hight in the devices settings, but it's the same thing.

Thanks for your help.

I guess you have a small scene and/or you're viewing at a small resolution? My last scene used 0.91/1.3 GB (gtx 670 2gb).
So I guess it's accurate.
