Thank you! I did as you suggested, pasted it 5 times, got to use a bit over 5gb. It’s better, but there’s still room to improve. Maybe the tasks I have been doing don’t require much ram. The processor is always maxed out though, that’s a good sign.
I have a new Mac Pro with 3.5GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5 processor, 16GB 1866MHz DDR3 ECC memory and dual AMD FirePro D500 with 3GB GDDR5 VRAM each. I would upgrade the RAM but I haven’t even tapped to the 16gb I have so it wouldn’t make sense now.
Is there anything wrong with my memory configuration? Maybe it can improve if I tweak it, I’m not sure I understand these settings properly (if I render to picture viewer should I have more RAM for the renderer or for picture viewer?

I am running R16 on Yosemite, indeed it’s 64bit. Maybe I am doing something wrong, I am not experienced. I have tinkered with the memory options but seemed to change nothing..

Actually the new Mac Pro goes to 128gb RAM, but I have 16 and C4D won’t touch more than 3

Unsurprisingly disappointing results from the new Mac Pro
Most of the time my CPU was +60% idle and when it was more active, not stable, spiking up and down.
RAM almost never used more than 30% which leads me to believe that it didn’t need to since the application isn’t designed to push this machine.
