out of memory

Question

Hi,
I have 32 gigs memory, 1 TB SSD, 2 single TB hard drives, windows 11 64-bit 22H2. Since upgrading, I play simple games in Edge browser like Mahjong, bubbles, etc.
After playing a short time I get out of memory and suggestion to reload the page. I reload the page and play until this happens again. I have never had this issue before with all the older windows versions of programs from Microsoft. I have searched for a solution to this, and I find nothing of value to correct this issue. I am not sure what Microsoft has incorrect values causing this. I would like to hear from a certified Microsoft employee who has knowledge about this.
Regards

Answer 1

I want to Thank all who replied. I see that this is an issue that appears to be a Microsoft issue of some sort. Problem is I do not have this issue when I use Google only Edge browser. Like I stated I have never had this issue using any Microsoft browser at all until now. Only when I upgraded to 22H2 did this occur.

Thank You all

Hi @Anonymous

I have some suggestions, you can try the following methods to see if they can fix the issue:

1. Make sure you're using the latest version of Edge.
2. Reduce the tabs opened in Edge when you play games. You can try only opening one game tab and close all the other tabs.
3. Disable/remove all the extensions in Edge and test again.
4. Clear Edge cache and cookies in edge://settings/clearBrowserData. You can tick Cookies and other site data, Cached images and files and clear these data. Make sure you have backed up the data you need before clear.
5. In edge://settings/system, turn off Use hardware acceleration when available and turn off Turn on efficiency mode.

Hello there,

There are many reasons for this issue that have been stated by Microsoft in their article. To understand the issue the below points might point you in the right direction.

Find out how much memory your page is currently using with the Microsoft Edge Browser Task Manager. Visualize memory usage over time with the Memory panel. Identify detached DOM trees (a common cause of memory leaks) with a Heap snapshot. Find out when a new memory is being allocated in your JavaScript heap (JS heap) with Allocation instrumentation on the timeline.
