ED Memory usage

I wonder if Brett means galaxy location - it could be mem leak in sys map or other location specific .. Maybe you're in the region of Thargoids! ;-)

  • Memory used for EliteDangerous64.exe (i7 6th Gen 32Gb Ram 980Ti using driver 364.72 on Win 10)
    • Initial : 1.5Gb
    • Docked (as I logged in) : 3.5Gb (asset loading I suspect)
    • Hovered around 4Gb per jump - 9 jumps in total
    • Peaked to 5.5 in Shinrarta (Jameson Memorial) - 1 other player there
  • Used mobius group to avoid hassle as I was ALT-Tabbing all the time

HTH.

You do get small increases in memory usage during a hyperspace jump (50 - 100 mb perhaps) but it drops back to the average level quite quickly it's the same for docking but if that increase accumulates it wouldn't take too much play to use up the system ram.

Just a query, is anyone seeing ED memory usage exceeding 5GB? Since the last mini update I'm fairly certain there is some sort of memory leak.

Previously I could leave the game for day's on end without a restart, now after a few hours the memory usage will keep going up until I restart.

Could anyone here let me know what type of usage they see after a few hours gameplay. (preferably Horizons 64 bit running ultra)

Thanks

I run on Ultra 980TI, and the memory never exceed 4500 kb. I sometimes leave the game on for 12 - 15 hours.
Just checked, starting up the game, fly a bit around, mem is around 4 Gb, will normally get to 4.5 Gb and stay there.

My mem clock speed is around 8 gpbs, and I'm running 64 bit horizon on W7.

Ah no mate :) I am talking about physical memory not GPU memory usage. Anyway, enjoy the new card, guaranteed you'll love it!

So are we talking about the GPU memory or the computer memory, I'm confused :S because if its the computer memory, i load it all into RAMDISK and it just stay there, so I really don't notice and change.

Ok, well if that's the norm then it's all good, just don't remember it ever being that high. Thanks for the help everyone!

Here's my memory usage, first pic is after loading the game, I left the game for a few hours and the memory usage remained the same. Second pic is after I got home and flew 70Ly to the Booze CG in Epision indi.

I was always under the impression that after every jump (loading screen) everything get's refreshed.

Driver,

Ran for 4 hours last night, was bouncing back and forth between 1 - 1.5 GB. and that was on the ED64 bit .exe

As of now, I don't see any issues right now.

The 32bit version had a memory leak, probably triggered by making screenshots. It frequently ran out of address space. But that was some time ago.

Does anyone know if verifying the ED files will reset my Key bindings and menu settings?

Probably best to back them up whatever the responses are on here!

Thanks, just backed up the whole folder. Fairly certain only my HUD modification should be overwritten, better safe than sorry.

Hey people, that's exactly what I need right now. Want to test some crazy two-joysticks combo, but don't want to lose my X55 full key bindings.

What's the file they're in? Or even better, as 777 did, what's the folder?

Thx!
