hei,

today i had a farm-game against easy bots and my computer became really slow.
to cut a long story short, coh 2 claimed to use 1.7GB Ram in the taskmanager, but when closing coh2, i suddenly had more than !5GB! less ram usage. have any of you guys experienced it since wfa?

It sounds like a memory leak to me. Next time this happens check to see if the task manager is showing what is gobbling up all your ram.

If it doesn't show it, try checking with performance monitor (click start, type perfmon, and press Enter)

If all of your ram is being consumed by the non-paged memory pool, then it is likely a memory leak. Sadly they are difficult to diagnose.

I ran into memory leak issues when playing BF4 with my monitor's non-standard resolution.

It was 10 GB for me after 4 hours of 2v2, this game is crazy.

I saw a sticky on their forums that said they are investigating a possible memory leak. Something is wrong since WFA. The game starts stuttering randomly sometimes, but most annoying is the long load time. I've noticed this happens most when I have tabs open in Google Chrome in the background.

i didnt do it with perfmon, but taskmanager showed 6.10 GB usage, while adding up all processes only summed up to 3 to 3.5 GB

Check with something else that looks at the non-paged mem pool, as I can almost guarantee that is where your consumption is.

Not showing up in task manager is definitely sounding like a memory leak though. Bad luck there.
