Lower ram in launcher and mission control

[nocturne plank]

Optimize RAM usage in Lunar Client, especially in Mission Control and the launcher. Lower memory usage would help players with 16 GB of RAM or less run Minecraft alongside other apps like Chrome without unnecessary lag. similar to dawn or prism launcher. Remove ads too

no, lunar eats more ram so you get more stable & better fps, and let's be real minecraft need like 4-6 gb of ram, what do you mean a lag? especially with lunar the best overall client, it is not playing cyberpunk with ultra settings

[delicate violet]

how would you suggest they optimise it? i'm sure they've done most, if not all, realistic optimisations for lower end computers. it is on the consumer to keep up to date with technology

[still ravine]

true

[nocturne plank]

Well there are clients like no risk and dawn that have the same fps but take way less ram

[still ravine]

so use no risk and dawn

[nocturne plank]

i prefer lunar but the memory stuff does annoy me

[nocturne plank]

.

i talked to agents and they let me swap my settings to G1 but i don’t rlly prefer it

[delicate violet]

that would probably be because lunar includes a lot more + is built on electron instead of what some others are built on

[nocturne plank]

no the extra ram is actually from ads.

it can easily be removed

[delicate violet]

fully close the launcher, then you wont get any

[still ravine]

true

[delicate violet]

or buy lunar+ to stop the ads

[nocturne plank]

yeah i know but don’t u think for the best client in mc it shouldn’t even have ads

[delicate violet]

because adverts do not run in the background, only when they are the main focus. that would be fraud which is what another client got exposed for

[delicate violet]

do you know the purpose of adverts for a company?

[nocturne plank]

yes i do

[delicate violet]

then you would understand why they display them

[nocturne plank]

dawn does have ads too but they don’t take that much ram

And i think i know how to fix the issue anyway, Dawn and no risk use G1 rendering but lunar uses ZGC. they have the same fps but G1 takes less memory from the launcher and mission control

[delicate violet]

probably because they built it on something light, compared to electron. and also made brand new

[nocturne plank]

u can do it from the lunar settings and it worked

[dapper dagger]

Can you provide some concrete data for comparison?

[nocturne plank]

i do have some and connor was rlly interested and wanted more images but the suggestion closed

dawn is taking more ram yet the usage is way less, lunar is taking less ram but the usage is way higher

Turning lunar into G1 instead of GCZ or whatever it’s called fixed it but made my fps less

i have 16gb of ram
