Can't play the fucking Mod without a server crash

It's because Arma 3 1.34 uses a lot more ram than 1.32, therefore pushing the server mem usage above 2gb, the standard memory allocator is 32bit and can only allocate 2gb - Server goes above that then it crashed. 

Servers need to be running the system memory allocator that is 64 bit. We've advised the devs but the hoster is more likely to see it here :)

Any servers that are already doing this that you know of? Had to switch off of my main server in which I believe we had the most stuff on the server and then after the update half of it disappeared because of full shelves.

Axle, I think that many of us would greatly appreciate if the Epoch Team would reevaluate applications for hosting a server. I'm not trying to represent the majority of the epoch player base, but I'm certain that many have experienced instances where there is an outright absence of admins to ensure a satisfactory atmosphere. Honestly, it is disheartening to switch servers for the interim until the servers we are regulars on are eventually rebooted. Furthermore, in that interim period it is difficult to find a vibrant server to accommodate 12-14 individuals. 

 

Again, I'm not trying to represent all the applicants but for instance we have a dedicated NFO server that is currently unused. Our community has over 8 servers and we currently have the #1 Battlefield 4 server in the World according to gametracker.

-malloc=system in your run line.

This.

Originally game comes with few custom memory allocator dlls that you can use, by default an intel tbb4 malloc is used....also some BSD (unix) based mallocs are provided, however if you are running windows 7 and up, you should probably run system malloc by default. If you have 64bit OS, it will also take full advantage of 64bit memory, obviously, it has always worked fine for me while others crashed several times on certain non-specific servers even in arma 2 days.

 

OP should also check his antivirus, if you are running older ESET version, then disble HIPS or update your AV.
