MemoryLeakFix #793
Comments
Huh, didn't notice that suggestion earlier. Anyway, MemoryLeakFix used to be in FO and got removed when it stopped being compatible. Now it is available again, but I am skeptical that it actually benefits much (compared to ModernFix and FerriteCore), and I've heard of potential incompatibilities with some other (non-FO) mods. So, I decided not to reinclude the mod unless someone requests it (you) and provides good arguments on why I should reintroduce the mod. |
Outside of the current and future memory leaks that this mod will fix, I have also noticed that it increases memory utilization by 30%. While this may seem backwards, it does hold some benefits. Such as making areas that render thousands of entities feel more responsive and smoother, as well as improving chunk loading. Before I would be able to fly into unloaded chunks and it wouldn't be able to keep up with me, after the mod was added there would always be one or two chunks ahead of me. On top of this, the frame rate was more stable/smooth as I was loading and unloading chunks with and without buildings. I'd like to note that throughout of all of this I never went past 55% memory utilization of 4GB while before it never went above 25% ululation. Summarization:

Indeed it does seem backwards, as 3 of your mentioned things are to be done through other mods, that take the goal of using less RAM for the same purpose, such as ModernFix. Additionally, the dev himself said he doesn't have much time to fix bugs/work on this mod at the moment. |
Yes, but you can't deny that this mod makes complex chunks (chunks that have large amount of entities, redstone machines, and complex builds) and loading chunks a lot more responsive at the cost of using up to 2.2GB rather than 1GB.
In my past experience with this mod there would rarely have any issues apart from not always being available for the newest version of MC due to the slow update cycles. |
I don't have quite the technical description of how well the mod works, but I install it myself next to FO and loads of other mods and I have never had any problems with incompatibilities (having only used the 1.20.4 beta), while having noticed the same smoothness with chunks loading. I have particularly noticed faster loading times for new world/chunk generation with MemoryLeakFix |
