huh. can't say I've had that problem before. maybe the OS swaps because of too little RAM?
<flayer>
can't you check your filesystem to see which folders are clogging it?
<Cardz>
thats the thing
<Cardz>
Not a single folder changes size
<Cardz>
atleast not one that the computer recognizes
<packbart>
or the KSP.log fills up with errors
<packbart>
huh. hm. that would still point to swap, then, I'd say
<Cardz>
Any idea on how to fix it?
<Cardz>
It does go away after i close the game, but i dont want to be able to play for only 10 minutes because of that problem
<packbart>
does it happen without mods, too? if not (and if you don't have that many mods), you could try and pinpoint it to a mod or combination that causes it
<Cardz>
It does happen without mods, but happens slowly
<packbart>
hm. how much RAM do you have, anyway?
<Cardz>
8 gigabytes
<Cardz>
But it nevers get used more than 70%
<packbart>
that should be enough, even with a few mods (it was on my Linux laptop)
<Cardz>
And on task manager, my Disk usage is stuck on 0 even if the storage is filling up
<packbart>
so, I'd say: check the Windows RAM usage statistics thingy for swap usage while KSP runs. and look at the size of KSP.log, too. with broken mods, that log can grow big very fast
<packbart>
I don't have ideas other than that, though
<Cardz>
i'll try, thanks
<Alanonzander>
I know my Windows Swap file gets huge when playing KSP
<Alanonzander>
nearly double in size and I have 32GB of Ram.
<Cardz>
I Think i'll learn how to live with this
<Alanonzander>
My linux ssytem manages the swap better, it only increases about 25% when KSP is running, but I also only have 8GB ram there
<Cardz>
it seems that it now gets "capped" at 8 gigabytes
<Cardz>
so atleast i dont have to worry about my storage filling up
<Alanonzander>
I would make sure you can double your swap/pagefile size on your drive
<Alanonzander>
if before starting KSP is is using 16GB (2x Ram), then assume it will use 32GB (4xRam) when KSP is running.
<Alanonzander>
I added a seperate, but small, hard drive just for my page file
<Alanonzander>
that helped a lot for performace on all large-footprint programs, including MS Office.
<Cardz>
I mean, i was planning on getting a new SSD and more RAM this month, so i guess i'll just have to do it a bit early
