Now I can run all 4 clients with none minimized and no lag in Singularity ! Haven't been able to that for a while.. But one concern I have is with the memory usage. All four clients started the game using on average 800 MB of memory. And after 10 to 15 minutes maybe longer in Singularityy it has dropped to 150 MB memory usage on average. Why such a drastic change in memory usage or so much usage?
By all accounts the test server is running smoother but the memory usage is still confusing me.
Good to hear!
How are you measuring the memory usage? Are you checking it ingame or in task manager? In task manager please check the various values (working set, commit size, ...).
So you ready for this? Here goes,
When I first log in, in station. SINGULARITY
All 4 accounts right around this.
Working set 750,112 / 0 / 12,500
Commit Size: 772,916 / 0 / 11,920
But about 10 minutes in my first account that was logged in first starts to drop, now I'm sitting at a belt.
Working set: 556,392 / 0 / 176,012
Commit Size: 921,240 / 0 / 166,320
The other accounts are still at the above work set and commit size. All in the same belt.
Then at almost exactly 20 mins in my first account drops from what I stated above and my other 3 clients drop like a rock in memory usage.
01:18 utc
Working set 750,112 / 0 / 12,500
Commit Size: 772,916 / 0 / 11,920
01:42 utc
Working set: 127,332 / 12 / 636,224
Commit Size: 912,272 / 0 / 126,512 (each of the next 2 clients vary but somewhat in this range)
I then docked in station and my clients memory creeped up about 250,000 mb in memory but not as much as when I was first logged into singularity. So ya to you this may make sense but to me it just adds to my confusion. And now as I sit and type this I notice my fans slowing down and take a look at the clients and the memory usage is now dropping to 150,000 MB on average.
(all clients minimized at this time but this is how it use to be when clients were minimized, fans would slow down)
Singularity is definitely still running smoother than Tranquility at the moment. But something still seems off. The last time I was able to have all clients up and not minimized was well before 119.3 update. Seems like headway is being made and I hope this helps and not cause unnecessary testing and time on your hands.
