I have a strange issue. out of 12GB of ram, 94% is pegged but it shows no process taking it up, it happens about 20 minutes into game and it gets really choppy. BF4 seems to be eating it up but I'm not sure for what.. When going into task manager, it won't show a single program taking the memory.. it's leaking and ruining my game!
Windows 8.1
Radeon 6970
Latest Beta drivers (tried/trying them all)
12gb RAM
Anyone else having this kind of issue?
Tried with windows 7 and the newest AMD beta drivers
Have had no memory leaks so far
so its something in windows 8 causing this
same here, can play one map if I dont crash before then...
after map change inside of 3 minutes all 8gb worth of memory gone then of couse crashed due to no system memory.
win8
amd 6870
8gb ram
tried reinstalling driver with no luck, tried registry NDU fix, no luck..
this really needs addressed NOW as it is an unplayable $70.00 POS game right now.
seems like zero quality testing from dev team before they rolled out this garbage just so they could collect the $$ sooner rather that later.
EA get off ur ass and fix this,

I haven't actually done it but for 2 games, but a theoretical (and temporary) fix is to quit after the end of one match and find another server. It's a pita, but I'd rather have to deal with finding a server than restarting my computer every 2 games.
This happening with Catalyst 13.11 Beta8 or is it all over the board? That's what I'm running.
For all you windows 8.1, AMD 5-6xxx series vid cards experiencing this problem.. I think I've finally managed to get it to work, until AMD/DICE fixes the issue. This fix icreases CPU usage but significantly reduces/rids you of the memory leak.
1) Get into your power options from control panel and make sure that you have it set as 'HIGH PERFORMANCE'
2) Download Park_Control from here: http://bitsum.com/about_cpu_core_parking.php
Back up your power settings, and then Disable CPU parking (instructions provided by software)
I was using BF4 64bit and it worked fine for hours, no freezes, no memory leaks (at least not 95%-100% leak, instead the leak is more like 30%). You will however notice, a CPU usage increase..but anyway its a decent fix till DICE/AMD fix this memory leak issue.
Give XP if you tried this and it worked
PEACE

UPDATE
This solution, appeared to work, but upon playing the game later, the memory leak resurfaced. Im wondering if only certain maps seem to trigger it or not?
Sorry folks.

In lieu of parking cores, I'd suggest simply leaving the game after a round ends and join back. I've done it a few times and it's worked. I suppose the bandaid depends on how far you're willing to go in terms of putting your system in jeopardy.
As for the solution above goes, I've heard of it working for some and for others not so much.

13.11 installed currently, but happed on 13.9 before. Must restart PC to free memory, can happen at any time, first launch of the game, or after a few rounds.
I am having the same revelations. Before it seemed to happen after a few rounds, but recently I've seen it happen almost immediately. It feels like it happens on maps I haven't loaded before/haven't played more than 3 rounds or so, but maybe this is just coincidence.
