When the lunar client is in the background {meaning its in its like "sleep" mode} it uses insane amounts of ram for no apparent reason. Compared to Discord, which i have open, Lunar Client Launcher uses 3 times as much as discord when Discord is open and the launcher closed.

For me it's the opposite, Discord uses around 1700-2000, and Lunar Client only 150-300. I think it could be the nature of electron applications, but I'm not 100% sure.

that's correct, electron applications are resource intensive. Electron is pretty much chrome without the "default" UI. it still comes with a V8 engine and everything, so it's as heavy as a chrome installation

It basically means that it's just random who experiences an issue with it and not really something that's easy to fix.

anyone wanna explain what that means for dummies rq pls? .-.
you're basically running a complied website
and the code which makes that possible is using a lot of your system resources but that's out of the control of Lunar Client developers
The code they're using is a modified version of chrome which doesn't have all the features you normally see but has the same functionality allowing the developers to make a website act like an app you can run without opening your browser.

v8 engine is the name of Google's implementation of JavaScript, a commonly used web scripting language. Similar to Apple's WebKit.

Hello sir, If Lunar Client’s launcher is consuming too much RAM when idle, try these quick fixes:
1. Close the Launcher: After launching the game, fully close the launcher through Task Manager.
2. Lower Allocated RAM: Adjust Lunar settings to allocate 2-4GB of RAM (no more).
3. Reinstall Lunar: Corrupted files can cause excessive RAM usage; reinstall the client.
4. Report to Support: Persistent high RAM usage might indicate a memory leak. Report it to Lunar’s team.
This should help reduce background resource consumption.
