		I seem to be experiencing the symptoms of a memory leak. Ie; after a period of time, the game.exe process hogs all the memory on my machine causing a complete system malfunction. Its requires a restart every 1/2 hour - 1 hour. 
Correct me if i'm wrong but this is due to dynamically allocated memory not being re-allocated to the stack - though im not a programmer expert. 
 
Is there anyway for me to provide more info? What log files do you need?

		4GB Mem on laptop.  
OS Windows 7 
 
Its taken a while for the issue to crop up. It tends to happen when I play for a long period ie more than 1 hour. 
 
Attached is a screenshot. Th first task manager shows how much the memory drops when I end the game.exe process. 
 
The 2nd task manager shows normal utilisation with a fresh new game.exe running. The memory then gradually increases over time.
