Hi I am using sky texture 15000x10000 jpeg which is only 15 mb in size when i add it to my scene my memory goes from 0.6 Gb to like 1.1 Gb like 500 mb because of the sky texture?
Does anyone know why Thanks

Jpeg is compressed, but when you need to use the image it has to be uncompressed.

No problemmo. Just knock it down to output size if memory is running low.
