Then I'm not sure why I'm not running out of memory then lol. I would have to go through the commit's on Foresto's wine branch. I would suggest to try the branch (https://launchpad.net/~foresto/+archive/ubuntu/winepatched) and see if you encounter the issue. I've been running on it for the past few weeks without too many issues regarding memory.
Like I said, I usually encountered the OOM crash about an hour or so in during PvE, pretty quick if I'm in WvWvW. After I switched to the above wine, I can WvWvW all day. So, YMMV.
Thanks for your feedback on this. I did a fresh Mint install with the patched version of wine that you linked and the latest nvidia drivers. Without a doubt it has been the best GW2 performance I've been able to achieve with Wine but still crashed on me after about 30 minutes of PvE gold farming on a karka train. I haven't attempted WvW yet.
