virtual memory exhausted

Since the launch of "World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King" I've
experienced random crashes where the end result seems to relate to "out of
memory" problems. These crashes mostly occurs when zoning.

I've not much more information to give at the moment but I create this issue
anyway since I can't find anything when searching for "virtual memory
exhausted".

I added the wine output as an attachment.

Could you have a look at bug 10778 ?

Probably the patch there moves the border a little bit away, it doesn't solve
the problem. ( I don't know if it applies to the current git ... but since it
is only one line you could also change it by hand. )

Sorry about that, would have set "Normal" priority.

I will try to have a go at that one since the problem description seems very
much like what I'm experiencing. "Loading new game data" etc. "Zoning" etc.

I've tried to git clone before but I've some networking problems and since git
can't resume I can't get that git clone downloaded. Anyone that could provide
me with a gz'd git clone? I'd really like to try this patch out ...

I can confirm this bug, I thought it was my graphic card (8600gts). It's been
happening more and more frequently, to the point where, if I don't have farclip
set to lowest setting, I instantly get it on login.

I'll try the patch and give some feedback.

Yep, patch worked like a charm, no more crashing even at highest settings.

Ok, I tried the patch out and it worked a lot better than without it. I played
for 3+ hours, flying, zoning, summoning, etc. Without any crash.

Then I took a ride and it crashed.

I saw that, in top, the memory usage (VIRT) was about 3900-4000 for a long
while and at the point where it crashed it was 4095. This is very close to 4GB
and maybe it has something to do with that? Maybe WoW can't handle >4GB
addressing?

The crash log contains:
ERROR #132 (0x85100084) Fatal Exception

Exception: 0xC0000005 (ACCESS_VIOLATION) at 0023:7E2DF22E

The instruction at "0x7E2DF22E" referenced memory at "0xB18A452F".

The memory could not be "read".

The referenced address is huge, in the regions of 44GB.

I've been playing around with that preloader.c file. Trying to get the VIRT
down. I'm unsuccessful. When launched WoW use about 3700m. When logged in it
quickly go above 4000m. This will increase as more data is loaded (textures
etc.) and when it reach 4095m it starts to get really slow ingame (fps wise).
You barely have enough time to Exit -> Exit Now (to save addon data). If you
don't Exit, the game will crash.

It seems that it is inevitable. WoW -will- crash and it depends on how much you
move around (how much data is loaded).

The same patch works to fix the issue.
Duplicate.
