Memory Leak?

Hello!

Since Beta release i got the problem (SP and MP) that the memory usage of Arma 3 continuelly rises and after 1-2 hours its unplayable.

When i start Arma 3 the usage is about 400mb, but after 1 Hours its at 900mb and first fps issues appear. Mostly i got very bad fps when i move.

A bit later when the memory usage is over 1 gb, its nearly unplayable.

Is there any solution?

My Rig:

AMD PhenomII x4 @3,4 ghz

8 Gb Ram

Nvidia Geforce GTX 580

My start parameters are:

-cpuCount=4 -exThreads=7 -high -maxMem=4096 -noPause -noSplash -world=empty

I hope you can help me =)

I haven't monitored my memory but the issue you describe is the same problem I'm having. Everytime I play for about an hour or so my FPS just drops to about 15. If I move it gets worse. I can only hope this is a known issue and hope it gets fixed.

Where is the sense behind that and why should it be a solution?

I mean, the pagefile only matters, when you deal with an opened application you didnt use for a long time.

But we are playing arma3 while our problem occurs.

And furthermore the ram usage of arma3 continuesly rises.

I think thge pagefile doesnt matter.

I wonder if it has anything to do with this. After some time of play I keep getting a ctd with the following in the log file.
