It sounds like you are asking about Clip Mapping rather than database paging
but either or both may be required depending on the "Terrain Paging"
application.

Performer 2.0 supports database paging, you can use another process to load
portions of scene graph and merge them with your application later. There's
also a fast file format & loader which is not in the release.

Performer 2.1 supports Clip Mapping, the texture paging for large area
geospecific terrain images on Infinite Reality.

Rgds,
Angus.
