<div dir="ltr">Can you explain a bit more? Do you plan to do a fresh allocation when resizing mesh beyond a certain size to prevent fragmentation?</div>

<div style="font-family:Tahoma; font-size:13px">What do you all think about a mesh load factor? I would like to add one to prevent a range of allocations issues (fragmentation, invalid allocations, etc.) when resizing a mesh. This would be able to be customized
