Performance Degradation with 1.14.5.0. Upgrade

Flight Simulator surely has a memory leak. Tonight I flew for a few hours with @FlyingCookie650’s Thursdays weekly event and after that I decided to do a few Landing Challenges.

After a while I started to get stutters. I lowered the Global Resolution and still continued to have stutters.

I started task manager to see what was going on and this is what I saw. It had 19.6GB active and 64.2GB of Committed SRAM. Even though I have 64GB of SRAM, we are now going into paging and Flight Simulator at this stage, when I’m just doing Landing Challenges, should not have 64.2GB of committed SRAM. Besides FSXX I also have other things running in that background that require SRAM.

This is definitely a memory leak and something that hopefully gets fixed in the next update.

After I went back to the main menu, it got even worse. Active SRAM to 23.1GB and Committed up to 69.4GB
