Default Re: Memory leak question

I have mine set to 4092 and I use XP professional, but that doesn't explain why the game crashes when the page file hits 1.2gb to 1.5gb on my system.

The only explanation I can come up with is this; SEV stores the previous turn in the page file. When you hit the next turn button SEV goes to virtual memory and brings that information to ram. Since each turn appears to use only 100-150megs in the page file and the game, at least on mine, and uses between 400-500meg of ram, this wouldn't be a problem. However if SEV brings the entire page file allocated to the game into memory it would become a problem.
