Can adjusting priority fix G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 3600 memory leaks?
This game is absolutely punishing my RAM. By the third hour, usage hit 15.2GB, which is just insane. The physical space on my G.Skill Trident Z 16GB was getting choked by useless cache data, forcing the system to swap to slow virtual memory, and my FPS tanked from 55 down to 22. I tried restarting the game, but it was the same cycle every 30 minutes—it was enough to make me want to smash my keyboard. I decided to use a memory management tool to force-flush the non-paged pool and locked my page file to 20GB to stop the fragmentation caused by dynamic resizing. In the memory snapshot, available RAM jumped from 200MB back up to 2.5-3.8GB, and the stutters dropped significantly. The first time I tried a forced recovery, the game froze on the loading screen until I set the recovery threshold to 80%. Memory temps were 48-55℃, and the RGB lights flickered a bit under load. I exported the leak addresses via a diagnostic tool, and frame times finally settled at 12-15ms.
