I've been running claude code on a 13 year old potato and it's never used 136GB of RAM - possibly because I only have 8GB.

  Its vram or something makes the OS completely busy even I have only 32 gb ram. task manager shows 100+ gbs forcing to terminate

    is that vram on your GPU? I don't think claude code uses that.
    • codegladiator 10mo ago
      Not on GPU, I think it's just paged memory. You are right claude-code isn't running the model locally. Today I've had to kill it 5 times till now. edit: https://ibb.co/Fbn8Q3pb https://ibb.co/Fbn8Q3pb that's the 6th

        Why do you think it's Claude and not iTerm?
        • codegladiator 10mo ago
          been using iterm for 10 years. Didn't update recently. claude code is the only new factor in my setup. I can visibly predict as i am using claude code when its about to happen (when conversation goes above 200 messages and then uses sub agents leading to somehow infinite rerendering of the message timeline and they seemingly use a html to bash rendering thing because ... ) so yeah maybe you are right iterm is not able to handle those rerendering or maybe the monitor is broken.

            I use xterm, and the visual glitch doesn't crash anything, so maybe try that? I suspect though maybe you're using much longer sessions than I do, with the talk of sub agents and all. I've mostly just been using it for single features and then often just quitting it until I have the next dumb idea to try out.
