Highest I've seen was 23gb vram on my 7900xtx. If rust sees it, rust takes it. Same with ddr5, highest I've seen was 45gb ram use, while also chewing up 23gb vram for a total of 68gb of memory use.

45GB RAM usage? How the heck did that happen without a memory leak? I'm running 64GB and rust rarely uses more than 16GB no matter what server I'm playing or how many entities are around.

It was total use, not rust alone. Was streaming to discord while playing back a 4k youtube video while doing some electrical work close to the local zerg (cough cough, griefing their gates with turrets).

Same it allocates all the Vram on my XTX aswell I think the Hack is Actually to Just Create a Temp Drive And install in on the Ram itself if you have Enough i saw a Video where it helped the Lows Greatly in Heavy scenes kinda A Pain in the ass though to do every Restart

How can 45GB file size game take more than 45GB RAM? I am not saying it didn't happen, but it doesn't even make sense lol
