Important engeneering flaw:


WHY IS THIS FILE NOT IN THE MEMORY (RAM) -- I got 6 GB and the game only use ~500 MB of RAM (first level) ?

This is a sign of .... porting to PC - Consoles have HARD DRIVE cache/file , but not the PC !!!

There should definitely be a new dev-console CVAR for this and a options screen setting for CHOOSING between HDD stream/cache file or RAM cache. A perfect unified optionality for people with not a lot of RAM and those high-ends with lots of RAM that don't even use windows pagefile.

Please report this for fixing - this can easily fix high-end people which will be the pillar to this game success or else they will leave and never return back for modding tools and super quality pack (ah they will, but need convincing)



Current memory usage chart:

Worst:
Using ~500 MB RAM for game system
Using all GPU GDDR
No HDD cachefile

Boosted:
Using ~500 MB RAM for game system
Using all GPU GDDR
APPDATA cachefile (HDD)


Best:
Using ~500 MB RAM for game system
Using all GPU GDDR
Using RAM cachefile ; ~ process seen as using 1500 MB RAM or even more if it's needed



We should be able to set the amount of cachefile size in MB - new dev-command request if it's not there already.


High RAM users should already have windows pagefile disabled - there is no performance use for it(even if you think there is, only diagnostic), it's just slowing the system down and it affects gaming very much, though it might be a lot better than XP days, still not completely gone.
