Possible memory leak? in SH4

swdw · 10-13-07, 05:02 PM

The longer I run SH4 the more physical and virtual memory it uses. Not sure if this is the way the game's coded, or because of a memory leak.

One time the game got so choppy, it was almost unplayable. So I saved and exited- took more than 60 seconds to get all desktop icons back and for memory usage to drop to normal.

Reloaded the game and everything ran smooth again.

Since there's the post on bugs for a 1.4 patch, I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this. If so, it may be a bug that needs to be fixed.

If I'm the only one seeing this, don't want to report it as a bug. Gonna load a utility to monitor this if other people are experienceing something similar, as memory leaks can often cause a CTD.
