On player load PhysicsParts memory increases permanently, resulting in crashes and severe lag

I also reported this directly via PM.


They should get on this soon.

Can you send a profiler dump so we can check the memory? Press Ctrl+F6, wait until memory gets bad enough, and press dump. It should save an html file to your user folder that you can post or DM me.

Here is my game’s profile when it was lagging until I applied the fix above, it still lags, but less.

Nevermind. When you disable this fix given above;

local players = game:GetService(“Players”)

players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterRemoving:Connect(function(character)
character:Destroy()
end)
end)

The game starts lagging again.

This may come from the fact I disable collisions between players.

Roblox apparently made a fix on it, and there was also a script fix on it. When I used the script fix it was better. But when the fix is not applied, it still lags.

Still occurring if this is disabled.

Can confirm this exact same behavior for Gem Galaxies, a roleplaying game that uses an older method of welding parts to a rig to create a morph. However, upon switching between the server welding the rig and having the rigs pre-welded with characters, the PhysicsParts still increases when you switch characters (via doing Player.Character = NewCharacter) and them resetting/leaving.

As such, when the server reaches about 5000MB-ish (within 6 hours, since a lot of people come and go, switch characters and such) in total usage, the server’s chat begins to give out before it inevitably crashes. I’m going to implement the fix as said up above + some.

Same here. In the patch it said it was fixed, but i guess not.

There has been no news on or fix for this issue and it has been multiple months. I am quite embarrassed that Roblox is incapable of fixing such a major engine issue.

the issue was fixed for me after a roblox update the 12/01/2023
it started happening the 11/12/2022 for me BUT yesterday 28/03/2023 this issue started happening again, some roblox forum moderator unlisted my post about this who knows why, makin so i have to put all over again.
They keep getting randomized messages as a proof of never ending loading onto the game or random crashes because of the last roblox update yesterday.

to be clear, i didn’t update the game that time, so this started happening randomly even with old versions of the game after a ROBLOX update.

Can confirm this is happening on my end as well.
