the Overviewer.
The Overviewer is eating up all my memory!
------------------------------------------
We have written The Overviewer with memory efficiency in mind. On even the
largest worlds we have at our disposal to test with, it should not be taking
more than a gigabyte or two. It varies of course, that number is only an
estimate, but most computers with a reasonable amount of RAM should run just
fine.
If you are seeing exorbitant memory usage, then it is likely either a bug or a
subtly corrupted world. Please file an issue or come talk to us on IRC so we can
take a look. See :ref:`help`.
We have had a few reports of The Overviewer eating all a system's RAM but we
have been unable to figure out why or duplicate the issue. Any help or evidence
you can provide us will help us figure this out!
