    Trying to ray-trace a 512,000x256,000 image using Chunky. I had to split it into 16 parts to reduce the RAM to a sane amount (in 2018, it may have been optimised since).

    I was trying to find the limit for a single png, and I think I found it.

      I’d guess that there are probably utilities to export the world file to POV-Ray or Blender or something. They might be able to scale better.
