Geometry streaming and level of detail

Techniques that load mesh data on demand and vary geometric detail by distance, visibility or memory budget, so large scenes can be rendered on limited hardware.

Nvidia's RTX Mega Geometry 2.0 bounds ray-traced detail by a VRAM budget

Nvidia's RTX Mega Geometry 2.0, now on GitHub, streams ray-tracing geometry into VRAM on demand under a default 2GB budget for scenes too big to fit. Detail now follows a memory figure the developer picks, though Nvidia's Zorah sample can still need 64GB of system RAM on first load.
