Krita keeps crashing6/13/2023 ![]() You said it crashes after painting a while and also said it seems to happen while doing smooth zoom and rotate?Ĭan you post here the system information for your computer? Then, if you start and run krita (with no other applications running) do you get crashes and if so, what are you doing? not a ‘hibernate’ or ‘sleep’) then restart it and don’t run any other applications, what does the Windows Task Manager say about the total amount of RAM in use? If you fully shut down your computer (i.e. Is that 340MB figure taken from the RAM usage meter on the krita status bar at the bottom of the window? If so, it’s not large at all. What does the Windows Task Manager say about the RAM used by krita?ġ9% does sound reasonable and believable. It would be a good idea to find out and confirm if there is enough free disk space though.Īlso, the “19%/340MB” figure provided in the other forum needs to be more specific: this one:īased on the information provided there, it seems that this isn’t a RAM usage problem. I think came here from another forum, i.e. if you’re not painting in the garden you don’t need Live Weather, do you?). ![]() Start as little software as possible when using Krita and shutdown unused Software and unnecessary “gimmicks” that are often found in the systray (e.g. This will free up space for the Krita and Windows swap files. If you are low on disk space, check the recycle bin for files you might want to keep and delete the rest, delete Windows TEMP folders, browser cache, uninstall unused software. If you are creating animations, you should go to “Settings” > “Configure Krita” > “Performance” in the “Animation Cache” tab and set the “Cache Storage Backend” setting to “On-disk”. These settings can be found under “Settings” > “Configure Krita” > “Performance” in the “General” tab. With 80 GB of free space on drive C, only 60 GB would have to be set to leave Windows enough reserve for its swap file and temporary files. If you have a second SSD/HDD in your Lenovo, create a folder there and set the path for Krita’s swap file to that folder, set the size limit of the swap file to 64 GB if you have at least that much free space there, if you don’t have a second SSD/HDD choose the same limit on the system disk if you have at least 30 GB more free space on that disk. If you haven’t already done so, set the limit of RAM to be used by Krita up to 6 GB maximum, instead of the default setting of 50% (~4 GB). ![]() If you have layers that are finished, and you are sure you don’t want to change them again, merge the layers - this will also save memory. To reduce the file size of your image you can go to “Image” > “Trim to Image Size” and remove the parts of the image that are outside the canvas, but ONLY IF YOU DON’T NEED THEM ANYMORE, this way you get rid of all the overpainting outside the canvas and save disk space. ![]()
