Incorrect low memory warning on linux

[gabranth]

Hi on 22.2 the game keeps showing a low memory warning on linux im guessing its reading the free memory stat (unused memory) instead of the available memory stat (unused memory+cache)

hi there,

 

Could you make a screenshot of your htop when the Avorion warning comes up?  What linux are you running?

[gabranth]

Manjaro Linux and it gives a warning with 3.95gigabytes of cache eg available memory.

I have the same issue. The problem is that Avorion does not consider the memory that is being used as disk cache as free memory, but it should as that memory can  be used at any time. Explained here (the devs probably know this): https://www.linuxatemyram.com/
