D2:R Memory issues

It’s a thread in the General Discussion part and i fear it will get lost over time:

Increased memory usage

I might have a lead on what it is that fills up the memory. I am not an expert in this nor do i have enough technical knowledge about memory. EDIT 1: My basic understanding of RAM usage and what the processor does is as follows. There are things in any software that is not needed a 100% of the time to run the software. Those things are stored in the memory and the processor can access them whenever it’s needed. With doing that used memory space can increase because new information is stored i…

I’ve opened a thread about RAM Memory leak. Seems to occur in Inventory and/or Stash is opened and it sucks up all the resources after a few minutes.

RAM Memory Leak

Possible memory leak in D2 Resurrected. Was playing for about 2 hours, and then the performance tanked. I pulled up Windows Task Manager and D2 was sucking up 13/16GB RAM and I was pegged at 100%. Computer froze. Closed game and was back down to 3 GB use by system. Started game back up and less than 4GB RAM being used. UPDATE/EDIT: Occurs when you have the stash and/or inventory open for more than a minute. See my reply below with a screenshot. Definitely occurring. Crashed the game and my syst…

Came here to report the same thing - After having played for aprox 2h, the inventory \ sales screen was getting really laggy. I opened up Task Manager to find that D2R was using 20GB of RAM.
There’s definitivly a bug here somewhere.

Maybe a moderator can move all those post into this thread or make a new one, so people dont have read several different topics?

Same issue, I noticed after a while the inventory/trading to merch is very laggy. I know exactly when it’s about to crash. Usually I swap to legacy mode and it’s instantly crashing the game. The memory leak is very noticable.

So going off this persons theory how big are people’s blz-log.txt getting to ?

AFAIK the blz-log.txt is a debugging file. When you have a beta you often have what’s called debugging flags turned on for a build that may generate log files with warnings in them. They’re not actual errors just near misses the QA team like to report to the dev team.

I say this because I too have a blz-log.txt file and I believe everyone gets a one of these files generated when in game. I don’t believe they are errors given I’ve been able to play fine even with a blz-log.txt that’s 5440 lines long

so after doing some random testing today i knotced if I have the slider for resolution scale set to below 100 i dont get the ram useage constatly going up while leaving my stash open. Me thinks the problem might be something related to that slider.
