I too have the wicked Memory Leak.. I have to Log every 2hrs or so.. sometimes sooner. After shutting down EVE it has a habbit of running for an Addl 15 mins. I am by no means new to computers and basicly the EXEFILE.EXE process goes from 100-150 to 300-400 and stays that way.. I cannot even stop the process sometimes... I could throw up a screenshot but I am sure you have seen em.. All I wanna know is .. Is there a work around? And don't tell me memory manager.. as I run SEVERAL games and have never needed one. This needs to be fixed.. I also start locking up in game occasionally and get the 1 sec lock up blues.. skipping thru a fleet battle at 1.2 FPS is NO FUN.. :( Bleh.. Let's get on the ball CCP.
Loyal 3+ Yr Player.. I just wanna fix.. :)

I run MaxMem - keeps it from getting silly out of control.
My solution was simpler - 1:Turn off indexing - every time it writes a file to the drive, it wastes time and memory indexing it. 2:Hammer down the pagefile. Go to the pagefile/virtual memory settings and turn off everything that's automatic and set it manually to zero in both fields. Reboot. Ignore the warnings and slowdown. Go back in, set both field to your memory size. Reboot.
What you just did was force the machine to have one big single swap-file that it never tweaks with. On my box, it's 512/512 - a half gig chunk that never changes. If you can defragment your HD first, it helps immensely as it will be one contiguous file as well.
And my memory leaks went (mostly) away(direct-x is still a source of all sorts of memory glitches). MaxMem brute-forces the memory to clean itself up when it gets past 90%. Run Eve for 12 hours at a time - no problems at all. And no having the disk thrash itself to death cleaning up files when I quit, either.

I submitted a bug report for this sequence: 1. Boot PC. 2. Launch TaskManager. 3. Launch EVE fullscreen. (Character in station.) 4. Alt-Tab from EVE to TaskManager. EVE taking up about 256k, which is set in ini file. 5. Walk away from PC. 6. Return 1.5 hrs later. 7. EVE now using almost 800k, with no display or player activity.
Might be sound related...when I get a chance, I may try it with sound disabled.

I have no sound man but still more testing dont hurt.
I havent had it bad since I did a claen up of cache folder, removed all but settings folder & prefs.ini but it is still there only much less. _______________________________________

lol i've been playing this game for 12 hrs a day for 3 days, without rebooting. 768MB of Ram and 256MB-1256MB of virtual Ram I don't see any problems with mine, other than my wireless router cutting out, so either it's a myth, or you whine to much and are trying to make sure it's not your fault, by pinning the blame on CCP.

Moron there is peeps trying to help peeps wile ccp should also be looking into it but i think they dont even read his forum.
You think people wanna spend there game & forum spamming time in a help forum ?.
Now are you also saying your evefile.exe was using 780+Mb ? if so then your also showing the leak. only a massive gang should get ya to around 200mb wile that gangs on screen.
The rebooting end is just not so well made pcs, maybe VIA chipsets, decent machine just gets laggy & eve gets slow in certain areas, jumping mainly.
Just add maybe you mist a few days ccp even got the mem leak on he servers or was they just whineing to us customers & making it up ?. _______________________________________

Edited by: SandCrawler on 13/04/2006 15:39:14 EVE Peoples,
Hello, and welcome to the only public location where you can find others who are having the same problem as yourself. That is, unless your trolling, and you really don't have any reason to post.
For the issue of memory leak to be considered a myth is a true sign of naivete'. There are literally 10's of thousands of combinations of software and hardware playing EVE each day, and I for one can assure you all that EVE can, and does work off of 180mb of memory. Ths is well below the 200, 500 and even 800mb that some of you have mentioned (holy crap guys, what did you think was going on?) I have only recently been working for extended periods of time on EVE, and only because of that, did I stumbled into this quagmire of memory inadequacy.
We'll, I can't say I wouldn't blame CCP for looking into this,(as I can imagine a great many players are affected by the leak), but for the time being, the program FreeRAM Xpis available for DL at www.download.com/3000-2086-10070530.html. I stumbled across this program after reading your reviews of how well MemMani worked, .. tried it, and then read in the latest copy of COMPUTER SHOPPER about it's bigger better brother, FreeRAM. I cannot vouch for it's Win98 compatibility, and if you have that OS, I am sorry, but for the rest, this program has worked for all members of my corporation that have so far DL'd and installed the software.
Thank you all for the read, and I hope this helps your game. SC

Wow so just because you don't have issues, obviously the entire playerbase sure can't have them either can they? 20 bucks says you don't even know what a memory leak is...
This needs to be fixed stat. I am new to this game, and enjoy it immensely, but to watch my free memory dwindle down to under 100 megs on a system with a gig of RAM is not cool at all. This should not be happening, plain and simple,

When are they gonna fix the leaks? Garbage collecting. Its not hard.

Edited by: Rourke Kendon on 17/04/2006 00:39:04 Well Eve ppl!
Fact! Seriously, there is absolutely NO doubt!
Everyone of you can watch it by pressing the combination "strg+alt+shift+M" ingame.
An ingame monitor tool will pop up not only showing the VM-Size continously crawling up but also giving an information about where the leakage does arise from.
Change the tab to "rot" and you will see several objects with one of them named "TRIUI.UICONTAINER" being created and not being destroyed again. (Seen from the red color!)
Hovering the mouse across the menu panel will tremendously increase the number of instances as you will be aware of. At the same time the game eats memory like popcorn. (Rate is like 2MB per minute) 
So, thats it CCP. It has something to do with that container-thingy. Now its up to you. I really appriciate this game and I am in trial now. But honestly, I am not very keen on spending like 15EUR per months in a game featuring ....uhm.... lets say "fundamental" bugs! 
Ah, my system stats are:
P4 2,4Ghz 512MB ATI 9500Pro/9700
Hope this post will help to find a solution.

But Memory leak is not listed as a "known issue"...hmm looking at the "known issue" list it seems pretty small huh?

Bumping thread so that new one doesn't end up wasting this much time.. over AGAIN.
Guys.. seriously, FreeRAM and MemManager(MemMani) are both fantastic programs and completely free.
Yes, it should be address'd and at the very VERY least, documented as a known problem.

Edited by: Rourke Kendon on 18/04/2006 23:13:20 I tried FreeRAM XP Pro v1.52 and it sadly didnt change anything....
Even worse .... when I force it to free RAM by performing a garbage collection the whole thing crashes. ___

Do you need any other or more specific details? ___
