Running unleashed on my computer (Win 7 圆4, with 7.5 GB allocated) FTB takes up 756MB of ram just to load a single world on normal view. The game and java are not the problem, your operating system is. Not to mention if your running anything newer then XP (which itself uses about 512 of ram) like vista (almost 1.5GB of ram) or 7 (back down to 1GB thanks to not being broken), you end up only being able to allocate a portion of ram to java. The 1 GB limitation, is 32 bit java, it will not operate with more then 2 GB allocated, because x32 operating systems CAN'T allocate more then 3 GB of ram (the addresses are MORE then 32 bits long). WARNING! Improper RAM allocation can lead to system instability!įTB is not responsible for problems caused by user-defined RAM allocation.Īre you sure you wish to allow user-defined RAM allocation? Perhaps you can add a dialog box that appears when the check box for limiting the RAM is unchecked: But let people who know the risks take them. PROPERLY.Īnd if FTB feels that it needs to shelter more casual computer users, that is nice of them.
#Allocate more ram to minecraft 1.11.2 how to
So let me make this argument: If I know that I can allow Java to allocate more memory than it is being given, and I already know how to do this.
You are correct about the memory though: If you allocate more memory than you have, the computer will eventually crash, or at least have other problems.
Java already allocates memory to itself within the computer's capabilities when it is installed. Wouldn't you think Java had some sort of protection from this?īecause it does. Click to expand.By this logic, ANY program would take until the computer ran out of memory.
