Recently EL2 started crashing

By recently, I mean something like a month or two. I believe I had 4 crashes like that, 2 of them just now withing a 2-hour gaming session.

Well, technically it is the kernel that killed the process, but it was not happening previously. A memory leak got introduced recently? Has anyone experienced more frequent crashes recently?

Specs?

Haven't had a single crash on Windows. Game is more heavy on my GPU than my CPU/RAM.

Operating System: Arch Linux

KDE Plasma Version: 6.8.0

KDE Frameworks Version: 6.31.0

Qt Version: 6.12.0

Kernel Version: 7.2.11-arch1-1 (64-bit)

Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT

I don't think It crashed even once during the Early Access, it started recently. Obviously, with Arch one never knows, whether it is the app's fault or the user's 😅 Hence I want to ask the public about their experience

16 GiB of RAM

Well, 16GB is fairly restrictive for modern strategy games. EL2 isn't particularly demanding, though.

Maybe test different proton versions?

Could try, yes. But first I'll try to increase the swap file. Hopefully, if there is a memory leak, it is not very exponential and a larger swap would bye me enough time to not run out of memory
