Memory Usage

[Heffernan]

Hello,

since my Java lags i though id ask everyone else ho much there Java eats and was wondering if 900kb is high?

If that is salem, it is 900MB maybe but not 900k! :p

I'm at 500Mo with Latikai's.

500MB on freshly started latikai, 800-900 after playing at my base for some time, 1000-1200 after visiting providence.

sounds like me, and i got 8gb of memory, so suppose its normal for everyone but seem not normal for a java applet?

Since when are java app not memory intensive? It seems about right for me, no need to worry.

If you're lagging - give your Java some more space.
"C:\Program Files\java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1024m -jar lsalem.jar -U http://game.salemthegame.com/res/ game.salemthegame.com

actually, if you're lagging (with multiple clients), it might be worthwhile to give it LESS space.
Java's memory allocation tends to be very lazy: things are typically only deallocated if memory shortage becomes an issue, so if you have a couple of clients running they'll tend to go towards their maximum memory allocation.
FWIW, my clients are limited to 768M.

Kandarim where you set up your maximal memory usage?
My way is good?

[Kandarim]

it won't work, because the client is called with explicit heap and stack sizes. Default is 768M for both, I think. You can change it in the jnlp (but it might give an error because that one is signed) or in the .bat command (see my thread).
Default client should be able to change it in the jnlp too.
