Whenever I minimize any Minecraft client (modded or vanilla) Minecraft starts using up tons of ram. Basically it goes from whatever it normally uses up to 9 gb. When I go back to the client it freezes my computer until it can basically go through all the ram it decided to use. Any idea why this is happening? Im on Windows 10 using java 7u60. (same thing happened on java 8u60)
Java can't allocate more memory than you have configured via Xmx, this should be 2G or less.
When the process gets much larger than the max heap size then the memory being consumed has to be native memory, and the primary source of native memory allocation issues is your video driver.
