It happens for the reason listed in the title of the post, memory leak. As soon as you get around 3.5gb mem .....crash incoming. You can monitor and avoid it by logging out and back in around 3gb mem.
This needs to be Priority #1 fix.
@LunaRae, yes to the crashing. Repairs don't find anything.
@Webbull, not automatically the cause of the crash. I'm running 16Gb on the system, so while it's not ideal, it's not going to take my system or the process down at 3.5 Gb.
Just put in the hot fix and let us test it!
It doesn't matter how much ram you have on your computer. You shouldn't be calling people out when you have no clue about what you are talking about. Oh and I have a few other ideas about what you should tattoo on your forehead.

My RAM usage shot up to 95% when I was rapidly switching weapon sets in a fight. The program is probably storing unneeded data every time you swap until it has twenty copies of "this guy has a sword in weapon slot one!"
I hope the programming guys don't have too much trouble fixing it. I'd really like to play ESO. :C

I'm pretty sure it has to do with the latter.

Sigh, takes about 2 to 3 hours for the eso.exe to get around 3.5 GB of memory. It starts to stutter and lag right before the client crashes.
Have set a timer for 60 mins to check how much it has built up / check how big it has gotten / then reset timer for another 60 mins... to so I can try and get relogged in before it crashes. Been mostly sticking to towns (Shornhelm currently) ... no weapon swapping ... just running around gathering stuff. Was so involved in looking around town that I forgot to set timer/check how close to 3.5 GB it was getting ... it crashed at 3.6 GB of memory.
For me this has been happening since 1.34 update.. before that I could play a solid 5 to 8 hours or more, only logging out to eat and watch MKR....
Hopefully they get this sorted soon...
yep ... saw that about the hotfix after I posted ... hence the edit on my post. Like I said "I" have only had the problem since 1.3.4 update... I am not saying that the problem wasn't there in 1.3.3 just that I, personally, did not experience any crashing with 1.3.3...
Thanks! It means a lot keeping us informed like you have.ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »Good news! We'll be hotfixing this tomorrow morning at 11:00AM EDT.

I wish every other moderator on these forums was like you, Gina.

Yes, sorry. This hotfix is for both megaservers.ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »Good news! We'll be hotfixing this tomorrow morning at 11:00AM EDT.

EU the same?
1) Lag and FPS issues are two very different things - only one of them affected by you video settingsLag in PvP, no. Still you say, yes? No. Turn your graphics down, stop trying to have your cake and eat it, too.
