[PD] [GEM] MAX texture size and number of objects...

[chris clepper]

3840x3840 = 14,745,600 pixels

Each pixel is 4 bytes so 14745600 * 4 = 58,982,400 bytes

16 of those would be 943,718,400 bytes

The textures would probably not fit on a 1GB GPU since the VRAM is also used
for the display buffers too.
