Possible Memory Leak

I've been getting constant warnings about Memory issues with my PC since the patch while running 2 EVE clients.

I have 8GB of Memory, and never had any issues before. I've noticed the EVE Exefile has been ballooining during gameplay, as high as 1.1GB while friends have been saying they're getting around 700MBs or so, which is what I am used to seeing as well.

Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Current MB usage : 1.092GB for client A, and Client B at 908MB.

Where I am.

I recently started using 2 acounts, always worked fine, but with the last update, i can barely run one, everything egts sluggish in adn out of game, ive run all of my virus-scans, malicious osftware removals, and the ONLY issue my computer comes back with is eve exhibiting an unusualy (crud i forget hwo to spell that word) high memory drain.

in a minute will try and open up 2 accounts, and then do it again with 1, post the MB usage.

With max settings at 1920x res I often see RAM useage above 1GB per client and have for awhile. RAM useage has been a bit odd lately tho i.e. with 3 clients running logging in at the same spot, doing the same thing in similiar ships the RAM use of each client can be wildly different for some reason i.e. one will be sitting at 700MB while another is almost twice that at 1.2-1.3GB.

A fresh restart of my PC cleared the issue, but it seems odd that a lot of memory was being "used" but not accounted for in the resource manager. So, something was sucking up memory issues. Might have been a one shot deal, I'll see if it happens again.

No issues here. Eve uses typically 1.5 gb for me, same as before patch, nowhere close to saturating the 8 gb of ram. Being 32 bit application, it can't hog all 8gb of your memory anyway. It's something else.

So yeah, checked.

having two eve clients open, sitting in a C6 wormhole, only moderate amount of POS-mods around, graphics at max, first application uses about 1.2GB, and after a few trials, the second application sat at about 1.6GB on average, having a peak of 2GB on the 4th 30-minute run.

granted i have 16 gigs of RAM, but its still annoying since i usually have other programs running mandatory on my comp, taking up about 10 gigs, that may contribute, but im still sitting near my limit.

sorry for any spelling errors, imma tired and have to ehad BACK to work in 5 minutes.
