- The memory and resources required to create those local variables are negligible, and are far outweighed by the instant benefit you (or anyone else reading the code later) gets from its clarity.

If you open your main project (the one where you’re seeing high RAM usage), does it IMMEDIATELY use 11 GB? If not, you should be able to narrow down the sequence of events — or things you need to open or edit — that lead to it.
The last few releases of GMS2 can have memory leaks when using the drawing tools and adding layers to sprites in the built in image editor. They've been trying to patch it in each of the last few updates but I still have the same problem.
Jan 24, 2024 · Well, you can create Texture Groups for your game and then flush and pre-fetch the unused graphics from texture memory at the start of the room, meaning that only those graphics you are going to actually use are held in memory.

According to the debugger, memory usage increases slowly over the first 20-30 seconds, and then levels off at some final value. Even completely empty projects do this.
