Using the "GL_NVX_gpu_memory_info" extension from Nvidia's OpenGL API, [[User:Hooray|Hooray]] has been able to expose video memory information, which was tested initially on a GT540 mobile edition card successfully. In an effort to make this extendible for other GPU's, we inherit a GPUInfo object for each vendor's implementation. Testing for other GPU's will be required in the future.

=== Thursday, August 27, 2015:  System Information Gatherer And Reporter (SIGAR) libraries adopted, new "stats" sub-system ===
We decided to adopt the System Information Gatherer And Reporter (SIGAR) libraries, to provide cross-platform support for resource tracking, memory in addition to other new metrics(which are shown in the Gallery section of this article), are now exposed under the new sub-system "/stats", which can be found in the property tree. VRAM support progress for other vendors are now postponed due to priority of Nasal and per-subsystem resource tracking. a development repository for the project is also being considered.
