Sound crashing during play
Suddenly my sound becomes like a scratched record and i start lagging. then sound disappears completely and game runs fine. just no sound at all.
i'm not the only one that has experienced this. |

yeah i forgot to mention sometimes the game crashes just after the sound problem. and yes, i checked and the game runs a bit slower after the sound is gone.

i don't think it's related to the sound card. i've been playing for a year and never had such problems before...
but it seems to be related to windows as i've not found anyone who had experienced this on linux yet. |

my game last night started with under 200 MB in the game and over the course of 3 hours play time (before it crashed hard in linux), it had grown to 912 MB (14% of my available ram). the game froze 3 times for 1 minute durations and then, right before it crashed, it would freeze, slow way down and then core dump completely. when it freezes, it shows these three states in ps: R = runnable or in ranabble queue L = has pages locked into memory (for real-time and custom IO) l = is multi-threaded (using CLONE_THREAD, like NPTL pthreads do) in any case, it appears that when in a threaded state such as above, its waiting on some I/O before continuing. |
