I was hoping that they'd fixed the memory issue so I could run all 8 accounts again without eating 24gig of ram in a matter of minutes

I have no issues whatsoever with running 9 accounts + FFXIV on my 8 gig machine, for usually 23 hours a day. Are you sure it's an EVE issue?

I would have to agree with this one. At most, EVE uses 786mb/client on max graphics and on 1080P while sharing system RAM with my dedicated Radeon HD 8970. I can run 6 clients effectively before needing to turn down graphics.

Windows 8 is a severe memory and CPU hog however, so its possible that trying to multibox on that particular OS might be more resource intensive. It is, after all, not an OS designed for Gamers.

If you have a quad or 8 core processor, try setting affinity for each exefile.exe process to have 2 cores each. So if you're running 8 clients, set core 0 and 1 to client 1 and 2, core 2 and 3 to client 3 and 4, and so on. EVE can run on a dual core no problem.

Latest update is that downtime will last until 15:35 UTC. It seems that the issue was greater than at first expected.

Our operations team are hard at work fixing the problem, however, and I'll go crack the whip once or twice again for good measure.

Thank you all for your patience!


What patience?

So, is this a scheduled or unscheduled emergency downtime? And the way the game was running was there even a point to the 5 minute warning?

I had just sent a bunch of money to my alt as it went down.

I was also redoing my alt's skill queue.
