halabb Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 I don't know which beta build started my new problem.x64 2003 ENTE64204GB DDR2 ECC1020MB RAM is available for utorrent. I've got about 128MB RAM left. In process explorer, uTorrent only displays its normal RAM usage. But when I close it, my available RAM jumps back to 3.25GB so I know its utorrent.Also, this is extremely odd... I was in explorer copying files. All of a sudden, the folder I had highlighted was suddenly named the title text of the utorrent window. I haven't been saving the builds before I upgrade like I normally do... where can I download the beta 1.8 build 9xxx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Unless the utorrent process is eating the RAM, it's not a bug on our end.It's the windows system cache eating your RAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 IE to "fix".... Ctrl-P -> Advanced -> Disk Cache -> Bypass windows cache for writes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonecape Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 I get the exact same problem and only with Utorrent.After maybe 2 hours all my mem is "eaten up" and the machine starts to swap to the pagefile. When I then close Utorrent, the memory usage jumps back down to where it was before starting Utorrent.Running it on Vista Ultimate 64 bit.E66006GB memPS: Running uTorrent 1.8 Build 11200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 And what happened when you disabled windows cacheing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonecape Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 Can't find the setting you mention.ps. I installed utorrent 1.7.7 now to see if it works better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 It's in the disk cache settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonecape Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 I will try that if I have the same problem with the final release of 1.8, for now I run 1.7.7 and it works great. Just wanted to report the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 It's not a problem.... unless disk cache settings override doesn't work. Thanks for the report, but it's not new... many people have reported this missing RAM. And all thusfar are "fixed" when you don't let Windows manage cacheing.

Firon Posted July 13, 2008 Report Share Posted July 13, 2008 The problem exists in all versions, and pretty much any software on Windows. It's a problem with the Windows system cache when reading/writing at high speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
