I am not sure if this is a bug, but PB2 has been consuming a lot of my RAM lately. This bug seems to only happen on multiplayer maps and is caused by visiting several maps. That is why I always have to refresh my browser, but it gets really annoying after a while. I want to know if this is a PB2 problem or a problem on my computer and if there is any way to fix it.
I have a screenshot that shows over one Gigabyte of RAM being used by the chrome's Shockwave flash plugin, but I don't seem to know how to paste it. This amount of memory being used is ridiculous! I never had so much RAM being consumed by PB2 before. This high RAM usage causes lag during gameplay (FPS dropping), and increases the ping value by a lot.
I have conducted an experiment and I have discovered the memory flushes down when you die, but after you respawn, the memory slowly rises back up again. The memory also flushes when other players leave. Simpler maps can use up to 850 MB of RAM, while complex maps can use up to 1400 MB.
Is anyone else suffering from the same problem? Is there anyone that knows if this is a computer problem or the game's problem? Lastly, does anyone know how to fix high memory usage besides refreshing the browser?
