I get CTD's and freezes sometimes and I have it on an SSD and I get them SP as well as MP.

I find that the memory leak is related to the presence of other planes. If I take off at an airfield where I am the only plane in the area I use about 44% of my 8 Gigs of ram. If there are multiple planes (3-5) in the area my frame-rate is very low and my ram usage is in the area of 57%.

For me it's seems like it happens after about the same amount of time online around the one hour mark. When teh JG27 guys guys did those coops I found it worse but hard to say if it happened sooner, my system just suddenly started slowing down and juddered to a halt then crashed.

From the update it does sound like they now what the issue is and that it's on it's way to be fixed.

Fingers crossed

If you are a memory SM kind of guy/girl do this:

Make an online sortie, land and switch the skin of your plane a couple of times. If you have process explorer or similar running you will probably see a very large memory leak spring off - the size of the hole in Titanic so your "launcher.exe" process will soon die... If this does not work the first time - fly some more and repeat the skin switch... Boom.

S!

It was funny how Kegetys noted when he made the tweaks for CoD that it uses insanely big files for nothing. Could achieve at least the same with smaller sizes as his mod proved...But let's hope the patch fixes it as Luthier mentioned launcher.exe crash was related to an old part of GFX code that was rewritten now..we will see though

S!

My CTDs stopped after I went from 4GB -> 8GB. I haven't flown much, but the times I do, I am online. With a few 1+h sessions I haven't had the CTD yet.

Mine didn't, I have 8 Gb.

I think so too. People should not put too much attention to spikes of memory usage, because garbage collector does not free the memory the moment it becomes unused, it does free it when it thinks it is good time to do that.
