Performance stats

As great as the program is, the ram stacked and i can no longer work on the file due to it running at 10.5 GiB. i tried reorganizing the performance stats, they are in the attachment. any help at all would be great as this is my trial run of krita and i would like to continue using it.

Whatever you do with the performance settings, your image is _huge_. You're at 16 bits/channel, so 8 bytes per pixel, with about 13,000 by 17,000 pixels. That is 10 gigabytes of pixels: and there's no way around it, that is bigger than your computer's memory. And width * height * pixel size * (number of layers + 1) is the kind of maths that just doesn't budge. I'm sorry, but this isn't a bug: you just cannot work at those sizes on your system. Krita does some swapping, but this is just too much.

I tried to resize but i can't figure out how, when i originally set the image size i set it to the size of paper but i guess i messed something up, thank you for the response.

Try to use image/scale image to new size.
