toonlord25 Posted March 4, 2024 Share Posted March 4, 2024 So I'm not sure if it's a memory leak or something else but I've been working on installing 2 big collections for BG3 and I keep having to restart my computer during the process because it is using increasingly more memory as it runs. I have 32gb of ram and after a couple hours of downloading/installing its maxed out when I return to it and causing all kinds of problems. I just started it up again and in the time it took to write this my memory usage went from 7gb to 14 with nothing major running aside from vortex and chrome. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to resolve this or if you need any more details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickysaurus Posted March 5, 2024 Share Posted March 5, 2024 Vortex does tend to use a lot of memory during a Collection install, this is pretty much unavoidable. If it's not maxing out your hardware it's nothing to worry about though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The memory stays used up with whatever it loses track of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're already aware of a minor memory leak from LSLib (used in BG3 modding) that we'll be addressing in a future update. If Vortex is closed you can also close any Vortex/LSLib processes manually if they stick around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is already a known memory leak from LSLib would that show up during download/install of mods? I haven't noticed any signs of a leak while playing BG3 but that could just be from the amount of memory I have an not playing long enough to notice.

toonlord25 Posted March 11, 2024 Author Share Posted March 11, 2024 It seems to have gotten worse after the recent update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagev Posted March 13, 2024 Share Posted March 13, 2024 Hi there! We optimized the BG3 extension quite extensively over the past 2 weeks - but unfortunately we cannot release the update until 1.11.X is in beta (hopefully next week) Will let you know once it's out so you can test the optimizations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
