When submitting a bug report, please use the below template and thoroughly fill out the necessary information.

Date & Time: March 14th, 2023
Frequency: Frequent, Random Intervals
World name: Gilgamesh
Character name: Solarance Everwind
Retainer name: N/A
NPC name: N/A
Monster name: N/A
Class/Level: N/A
Party or solo: N/A

Steps:
1. Play the game during 6.3 release - 6.3 first Hotfix maint or 6.35 release onwards
2. Do anything, or nothing (with Task Manager open)
3. After an inconsistent and undetermined amount of time, the game will randomly spike in memory usage to an absurd amount, causing the game to freeze and become unresponsive.
This results in one of 3 outcomes:
1: The game force quits on its own
2: The game will visually freeze and become unresponsive for upwards of a minute, occasionally bleeding over a minute and after memory usage drops, it will rubber band catch up then continue to play normally
3: Will play out the same as result 2 but after an inconsistent and undetermined amount of time, I will get disconnected with the 90006 error.

Here is an image of FFXIV being a memory hog


I have images of the memory usage reaching over 27GB as well, which can be provided upon request.

While I know the forum moderators are unable to take any action in reversing the changes made to this, I desperately plead for this to be escalated as soon as possible because on top of the annoyance of this issue, it's impossible to even step into content without becoming a liability due to this being entirely out of my control. I'm unable to properly engage in content, even solo content such as the new deep dungeon without the risk of losing a run as consequence of this alteration made on the back end.
