## Issue Report

Initial plotting failed with error “memory allocation of bytes failed”.

### Environment

subspace-farmer-windows-x86\_64-skylake-mainnet-2024-dec-09.exe

Node-1  
amd 7950x3D/32GB/2TB+2TB SSD/WIN11 23H2

Node-2  
amd 7950x3D/32GB/2TB+2TB SSD/WIN11 23H2

Node-3  
amd 5900x/64GB/4TBTB SSD/WIN10 PRO 22H2

### Problem

Memory allocation failed during initial plotting on servers on Node-1 and Node-2.  
Node-3 works fine.  
Looks like a memory leak. When stoped plotting on Node-3 total memory consumption drops from 59GB to 14GB.

tested all version,still have this problem with memory. 1 guy has same problem here

yes,here is my command for node and farmer

```auto
.\subspace-node-windows-x86_64-skylake-mainnet-2024-dec-09.exe ` run `
  --chain mainnet `
  --base-path c:\wolfienode `
  --farmer `

```

This is the first time I hear someone having such issue in recent times.

Is this only happening with `dec-09` release or `nov-28` as well?

I’m quite certain this is not the same issue as on Gemini 3h, but there might be still something else happening. Can you provide a screenshot from task manager showing what apps are consuming how much memory (sorted by memory usage)?

Do you mean without restarting an app? Do you plot with GPU? Having full logs as text instead of screenshots would help a lot.

Full logs from the window that you sent a screenshot of. Copy all the text in there since the very beginning.

As for task manager, I means the list of processes, not overview.
