Premiere using 62gb of ram... How?

[jayr42738890]

62gb of ram? Is this normal?

I've been trying to render a music video for two days but premiere always crashes because my system runs out of memory?! lol wow.

I switch the renderer to "Software Only" and trying it again now.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

Try resetting the preferences:

FAQ: How to reset preferences in Premiere Pro?

If that doesn't work, try resetting the Workspaces:

Reset a workspace

Reset the current workspace to return to its original, saved layout of panels.

1. Do one of the following:
   • Click the Workspace menu icon and select Reset to Saved Layout.
   • Choose Window > Workspace > Reset to Saved Layout.

Also, make sure you've set your memory settings in preferences correctly. If you're not leaving enough for other apps your system can run out of memory during intensive playback/renders.

JayR,

Sometimes you can get a memory leak when updating projects from one major version to the next. I have heard a few instances of this. Could this be the trouble?

Thanks,
Kevin
