R.E.P.O.: Potential Memory Leak in the Game? (Workarounds)

Short answer

Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Relaunch the game every hour to clear the accumulated RAM usage before it crashes. Since returning to the main menu does not free the memory, restarting is currently the only effective

The problem

The update has been really fun though I've had the game crash whilst in multiplayer lobbies due to my system running out of memory twice now. For reference I have 32GB of RAM and I'm only using around 8GB when Repo isn't open. It seems to trigger after we've been playing for around 3-ish hours.

What players suggest

I thought the recent update would have fixed the issue but I am still facing said memory leak in the game too. This time was around 46 mins before crash

Goofy

Just tried another game. after only 4 levels the game is using 13.3GB of RAM. returning to the main menu does nothing so the only fix is to relaunch the game. ..Which is a bit of an issue if you're in a public MP lobby because there's no way to continue the save. So basically any MP lobby I'm in will just crash at some point and sadly there's nothing I can do to stop that.
