Typically, a x264 process, with 1080p input (8-bit), takes about 1G here. So, 4G+ for 10-bit seems about entirely right for a 4K source.
Depending on what type of fiters you're using (Temporal denoising/QTGMC, etc), I have vspipe processes that exceed 11G memory. And that's just for 1080p material.
I have only 32G, so I don't ever dare and try this on 4K stuff. But it stands to reason the vspipe process will go way over 40G in that case.
