Hello !
I'm new in this forum, but not new in flightsim !
I have read this thread and I have some inputs as well as question how to handle the issue.
I recently had several fs9 crash during flights As I read in this thread, I started looking at the memory consumption during many test cases.
For some addon scenery, the fs9 memory allocation is almost constant while other sceneries the memory regular increase to 2G in some hours. Not only in relation if the scenery is complex or not. Moving to an other airport does not free the allocated leaked memory. ( Message may be "out of memory" or just "had stop working", it come when get close to 2G )
Since I consider this as a memory leak in fs9.exe trigged by sceneries, and I cannot see what in the sceneries may expose the fs9 bug (all sceneries consist just of BGL and BMP) I have no absolute solution.
My solution is. Do not have long time activities on fs9 before a flight, then better restart fs9. If preparing/prepared a flight, select to pause fs9 when it is not required to run for a longer time, this memory leak has no effect when fs9 is in pause.
I wonder if someones see the source to problem the same, is there any fix or work around (such as disable some Display-settings), is it possible to easy avoid those sceneries, is this bug still known in FSX ?
