    I've run through two different POT that have sieges going on, one of each type. At the end of the run when the POT is loading, the program crashes. No crash report is being sent for these errors.

    Figured you might want to know. Let me know if I can help in any way.

    A crash due to too much memory leaking will usually happen as a scene is loading. I don't see any indication that what you are seeing is anything different.

    They are only recently working on performance problems. Until something is done about the memory leaks, you should probably quit and restart the client every now and then, especialy if you only have 8GB of memory.

    just try to unload that ram of anything you don't need, virus scanners are a big one, also if you are going through steam one could perhaps use standalone client. Lastly of course lower video settings may help, in your case specifically aggressive loading, cull interior decorations, shadows etc. Last I looked, loading in Sota put me at just under 8mb so after a person with 8mb zones once basically... they are grinding a swap file that acts as ram on the old hard drive, so the slower the drive the more exaggerated this is.
