Logging On Today. Still Experiencing Memory Leak

With every patch my computer has experienced large jumps in memory usage. But since the 1.1.2 Patch I cant even get into the game and stay there.

Before 1.1.2 I could minimize ESO and easily check TS or the Task Manager. As it is now I cant run TS in tandem with ESO and minimizing ESO to even look at the Task Manager bogs my system down to the point that my computer barely scrapes by a hard crash. Ive been unable to spend more then 20 minutes in game before having to log due to what at first I thought was post-patch lag. Only to realize that the Memory Leak is the true culprit.

I was hoping this maintenance overnight would be Zenimax doing their jobs and fixing a major issue with the game. But it seems this hasn't happened. Atleast for me.

I enjoy this game. Ive put enough hours in that Im now VR2 but unfortunately for me. If I cant safely log in without my computer running the risk of hard crashes. Is anyone else continuing to experience Memory Leaks?

    Sadly, ESO is actually a 32bit client. And I think it has two issues. One is memory leaks. The other is that it is running right on the raged edge of free memory availability. The combination is causing all sorts of crashes, lags, and other typical memory issue problems.

    Have you tried to alt-tab out of the game and close the launcher after you've gotten into the game? Does that help?

    Not sure, and I am not being sarcastic. I've saw some guildies talking about doing that and having it help them with memory issues. I have no idea if it's related or not, but figured it couldn't hurt to suggest it.

    My typical start up of the game is always the same. I make sure theres nothing running in the background that isn't important or necessary utilizing the Task Manager.

    I run the Launcher. Press Play. Before eso.exe can even get going Ive shutdown the Launcher and put eso.exe as a high priority in Task Manager.

    My habit hasn't changed since day 1 of release. But ESO has definitely changed my computers reaction to it since the last handful of patches.
