To be fair the one time I did manage to push 24gb it was a stress test, outside normal workflow tho I generally dont use more than 8gb of ram

I do. Games like KSP, Rimworld, that like modding, can get heavy quickly. Can we please move to a patcher approach, instead of keeping all the modified assets (and the originals) in the RAM all the time?
