[SOLVED] Ram leak(?) Or i'm missing something...

[truffoli]

Hello.

Since some days, i'm experiencing something really weird with my ram. Right after launching warzone it goes up from 10/15% to 70%, and slowly increasing (in about 40 minutes) until it gets to 96% and crashes the game. I thought it was game related, since i started Escape From Tarkov, and got the same identical issue, closing the game and some of the background running applications. (paging error)
Now, since i got 16 gb of ram and those two games never went over 7/8 gb of memory allocated, what could be the problem? I ran a memtest and everything is ok, i also ran malwarebytes with no luck.
I would really like to avoid a system reset

Here are some screenshots

Thanks in advice to everyone that would help me

memory leaks can be caused by out dated drivers on PC, try updating drivers.
can mean a driver is taking ram allocations but not giving them back once finished,
your page file usage doesn't seem that high, so its only ram being used

try running this, it should help identify what is using ram = https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/rammap

it needs ram itself to run but use it after the game to see if it shows whats using most.

Here it is. I just forgot to tell you that i did that before... i can't see where those 6 gbs of mapped files are

mapped memory - 3.5gb of that ram is on standby, its not being used , it is free for other uses so really only the 1.5gb is being used
its very similar on my pc

really, you have 16gb total, 5.4gb in use and 3.6 in waiting, difference is likely split between zeroed and free
nothing unusual here, I would run it in background and see what it shows if you do notice ram increasing. Need to compare normal usage to abnormal to see where differences are.

Another thing to try is poolmon

This is it, ordered by bytes, after running for an hour. But i can't go further... i don't know how to analyze those data...

what you need to do from here is look at the tags with the most difference between allocs and frees, as that shows what is holding memory

also, might help to get a report at idle and one when its almost full to see what difference might be.

this page shows what most of the tags mean - https://github.com/zodiacon/PoolMonXv2/blob/master/PoolMonX/res/pooltag.txt

I have to go out for a while but when i get back I see what I can find on your report that isn't part of windows already

also, you only need to look at non paged
Paged= in page file, on hdd/ssd
Non Paged= Still in ram. Since tis ram that expands it means we only need to look at half the tags.

what motherboard do you have? its probably a driver doing it so if you show me what you have I might see an obvious cause like Killer internet drivers.

Non Pages (Ram) - report is blurry, i can't read some of the tags such as the 4th tag down

not sure what MmRe - Difference 2330- don't that as i suspect it, I just don't know what it is yet. If i search for it, it shows in other searches about memory leaks . Not very big anyway.
NVKM - Nvidia drivers - Difference 30292 - I would expect them to use memory
File - File objects (not very descriptive) - Difference 28356
NTxF - NT Blackbox (part of windows)
MmCa - Mapped files control areas
NTfs - NT file System

nothing really there has a big difference. thats what you need to look at, things that asked for more than they given back, and seem to grow over time

I only saw one thing in listing that isn't part of windows. Likely others but I was looking at big differences
