mem leaks?

I noticed that after update RO eats up around 2,1 GiB of memory instead of 1 GiB before update, can anyone confirm that?

Nice catch.

Code:

-/+ buffers/cache:       2634        386

Code:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S  %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND                                                                   
 8350 tiger     20   0 3973m 2,3g  49m R  46,9 78,0 415:05.72 game

I was wondering why FPS were so low and gameplay laggy, now I know why.

I play with only 1754 MB RAM (I actually have 2 GB but 256 MB is shared with my IGP card).

For me htop prints this:

Code:

PID USER      PRI  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S CPU% MEM%   TIME+  Command
4884 wolfi      20   0 1577M  981M 79384 S  0.0 56.0  0:05.87 ./game

I noticed that playing under Calculate 12 (XFCE desktop) with the non-proprietary Radeon driver lags less than playing under Fedora 17 (Gnome shell) with the proprietary Catalyst driver for me. Although the framerate is considerable higher with the second. With proprietary Catalyst drivers it helps to reduce lags if tearfree video playback is disabled. But still laggier than the first system. My graphiccard is a Radeon HD 3200.

maybe the memory leak depends on the video driver, could it be?
