Memory leak while on title/menu page

Post by Merrilin »

Hi,

I noticed that leaving the game for several hours results in a crash due to memory starvation. At first I thought it might have been one of the mods I recently loaded, or an in-game issue, since Googling seems to suggest others have had similar problems. So last night I left Factorio at the title screen with no mods loaded, and this morning it had crashed again.

I've attached a log file, though it doesn't seem that it was able to produce a stack trace because of the memory. I've restarted Factorio now to see if I can reproduce it; it will be several hours, however.

I've also created a core dump of the process on start up. I'll take another when the memory usage gets higher, perhaps you can use that to find what's eating the memory. One other point of note: I recently upgraded my laptop, which seems to have been when the problem occurred, so perhaps it is a hardware issue. I'm running Windows 7 on a Fujitsu Lifebook E546.

I'm pretty sure I already fixed this for 0.15 but if you do manage to get a dump I'll take a look at it to confirm :)
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Sure, I'll unload the mods again after tonights binge and let it run overnight (I couldn't wait the last time I tried...) :).
