Had a session zero tonight and my players were complaining about high memory usage. When I checked it was over 6GB, and one player was saying it was using 13GB. Is this an optimization thing or will Ember just require high memory?

6GB is a bit high but could be expected. 13 definitely suggests a memory leak somewhere

@minor badger please work with @remote gust to collect some more info and see if we can track down the source of this sort of extreme memory usage

Hello @remote gust! It would be useful for me to know which performance mode you are using, and the same for your player with the 13 GB usage.
Does this memory usage occur after a long session or a short one?

Hello <@323851299189686283>! It would be useful for me to know which performance...
I have a pretty good PC, so I set everything to the highest. I'll have to get with my players to find out what they use.
It seems to jump around quite a lot, I've been taking note and it will go from 4GB to sometimes 17GB. It doesn't really seem to matter on time, it fluctuates throughout. That is just my experience. We are doing 3 hour sessions so if my players are getting high RAM usage it's within those 3 hours.
I do leave my server up for days on end. I use the NodeJS server.

This is CPU memory usage right?

I'm not exactly sure, I thought it was just RAM usage, but I don't know how Chrome does it. But if I mouse over a tab, it shows "High Memory Usage". This is for my normal D&D game, not Ember. And they usually hover around 1GB.

Ok thank you. This is enough information for the moment. I'll investigate tomorrow morning. I think I have an idea.

Awesome, good luck 🙂
