' Wrote:ok, its a memory leak. If we know WHERE in the memory the leak is, can't we write a program that can detect when the memory is about to overflow and warn the players?
"Unexpected dark matter wave detected, it is advised to dock immediately"
If I knew where the memory leak was I'd just stop it leaking and then the server wouldn't crash.
The next best is to quickly reboot the server when a memory leak condition starts. This will at least let the server come back quickly.
