Good at eating capacity. Anyone who is small is difficult.

Anthropic seems to be facing criticism from Claude Desktop users on Windows. The latter is reported to have used an unusually large amount of memory (RAM), with some cases being found to have ingested several gigabytes of RAM despite not having started taking any features seriously.

.

The problem was widely discussed on GitHub and the user community. The latter found that Claude Desktop would turn on the Hyper-V Virtual Machine (VM) to run behind the scenes automatically when the program was turned on, resulting in a Vmmem processor running around 1.8GB of RAM from the start, even if the user did not run the Agent Mode or Cowork feature that relied on such a VM.

.

Many users have stated that pre-empted RAM affects the performance of a machine, especially a computer with 16GB of memory, where the loss of nearly 2GB of RAM since the program opened is considered a relatively high proportion. It has also been further reported that some machines experience Memory Leak symptoms or incomplete memory returns. This makes prolonged continuous use can cause the use of RAM to gradually increase to reach 10-20GB levels in some cases.

.

Another point of dissatisfaction to users is that there is currently no option within the program to disable such VMs directly. To disable them, it is necessary to disable Windows' own Virtual Machine Platform or Hyper-V features. This may result in some of Claude's features being unavailable.

.

This has caused a wave of comparisons with Google Chrome, which has always been known for its high RAM usage, with many users teasing that Chrome uses RAM because it opens multiple tabs at once, while Claude uses a lot of RAM since it has not yet started. However, the problem seems to be limited to Claude Desktop on Windows. Use through the browser website Claude.ai has not yet found the same report.

.

Anthropic has so far not released an official statement on the issue, but a number of users have called on the company to add options for shutting down VMs running behind the scenes, or improving memory management in the next version, to address the over-use of system resources.

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ใช้งาน Claude Desktop บน Windows จริง ผมพบว่าปัญหาใช้ RAM สูงอย่างต่อเนื่องนี้ไม่ใช่เรื่องเล็กน้อยเลย โดยเฉพาะสำหรับผู้ที่มีแรมเครื่องไม่เกิน 16GB เพราะทำให้ระบบช้าลงจนรู้สึกได้ทันทีตั้งแต่เปิดโปรแกรม แม้ว่าจะยังไม่ได้ใช้งานฟีเจอร์ใดๆ ก็ตาม สิ่งที่น่าสนใจคือ Claude Desktop จะเปิดตัว VM ผ่าน Hyper-V อัตโนมัติ ทำให้โปรเซส Vmmem ใช้ RAM ประมาณ 1.8GB ตั้งแต่เริ่มต้น แม้ว่าผู้ใช้ส่วนใหญ่ไม่ได้เรียกใช้งานฟีเจอร์ที่ต้องพึ่ง VM ก็ตาม เหมือนมันจองพื้นที่ไว้เผื่อใช้งานล่วงหน้า ซึ่งไม่มีตัวเลือกให้ปิดอย่างตรงไปตรงมาในโปรแกรม ต้องไปปิด Virtual Machine Platform หรือ Hyper-V ของ Windows เองแทน ส่งผลให้บางฟีเจอร์ของ Claude อาจใช้งานไม่ได้ นอกจากปัญหาใช้ RAM สูงตั้งแต่ตอนเปิดแล้ว ยังมีรายงาน Memory Leak ที่ทำให้แรมที่ใช้เพิ่มขึ้นเรื่อยๆ เมื่อใช้งานต่อเนื่องหลายชั่วโมง ในบางกรณีกิน RAM ไปถึง 10-20GB เลยทีเดียว เหมือนว่าโปรแกรมนี้ยังต้องการการแก้ไขด้านการจัดการหน่วยความจำอย่างเร่งด่วนเพื่อรักษาประสิทธิภาพ สำหรับใครที่ใช้งาน Claude ผ่านเว็บเบราว์เซอร์อย่าง Claude.ai จะยังไม่เจอปัญหานี้ และถือว่าเป็นทางเลือกที่ปลอดภัยกว่าในช่วงนี้ แต่ถ้าคุณชอบใช้เวอร์ชันเดสก์ท็อปและมี RAM น้อย คงต้องหาเวลาปิดโปรแกรมบ้าง หรือพิจารณาอัปเกรดแรมเพื่อความลื่นไหลในการใช้งาน โดยรวมแล้ว การที่ Claude Desktop กิน RAM สูงสุดตั้งแต่ยังไม่ทำงานจริงๆ ถือเป็นข้อจำกัดใหญ่ที่ผู้ใช้งานอยากให้ Anthropic แก้ไข ไม่ว่าจะด้วยการเพิ่มตัวเลือกปิด VM หรือปรับปรุงประสิทธิภาพการจัดการแรม เพื่อประสบการณ์ใช้งานที่ดีขึ้นและไม่กินทรัพยากรเครื่องโดยไม่จำเป็น
