[opensource-dev] Concerned about frequent crashes

[Marine Kelley]

I crash a lot on 2.8.0, at least twice a day. It is usually a sudden
crash to desktop, and from the log it looks like the viewer goes short
on memory. It happens more often with deferred rendering on, but it is
always random, I could never link it to any particular action I take.
My computer has 4GB memory, and is running Win 7 that takes 1.5GB all
by itself. But I would believe that 2GB should be enough for the SL
viewer... It keeps eating more and more memory though. Seems there is
a huge memory leak in the deferred renderer.
