Branch(es): 0.x / 1.x / master

so you tried all branches or just too lazy to replace the template with your actual branch? :D

:| @ShinDarth i forget to choose my branch and you are so clever :)

Unconfirmed, try without anticheat

[Dilemmast]

@Inifield okay i try to check without anticheat but this problem is possible of my operating system? this is Windows server 2012 ?

If someone wants to analyse what is wrong, see these linux tools:

• Valgrind https://youtu.be/fvTsFjDuag8
• ASan, LSan: https://github.com/google/sanitizers/blob/master/README.md

this can help partially https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore/commit/fc852181c578e2ab8644bebfef13199a7897ebe9

@ShinDarth Viste said it's a partial fix

[Sdyess]

The core is easily filled with memory leaks, it's a massive code base maintained by amateurs & hobbyists with a ton of old code. Issue should stay closed, could be reopened with a valgrind log or something similar.

[BarbzYHOOL]

Only few people have experience with it there (and I'm not one of them)

[Sdyess]

Show me a higher RAM usage first. 2.3GB used isn't much, cells will start to load as the server is used. Until someone posts a valgrind log and does this without modules, this probably won't be looked at.

[BarbzYHOOL]

I also had same concerns when switching from TC, but finally, no.
