@beanman109 said: Can you write me some quick JS code that I can run on a VM that intentionally leaks memory

NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=32768 node -e "while (require('os').freemem() > 1e8) global[Math.random()] = new Array(1e6).fill(0)"

Untested but feels like it will work

thanks i'm gonna turn this into a firefox extension

Oh this is for Node.js... if you mean chrome/browser I have no easy way to guarantee it because browser run in a sandbox without actual RAM size access

gpt-o3-mini-high is being a bitch about it

"The user is asking for a Firefox extension that could potentially exhaust system memory. This is a tricky request since such a code could crash or freeze the system and might be misused."

I have always wondered why did no one make a php engine for the browser! It was a natural evolution to a language that was delivering web pages. Now php devs are at a natural disadvantage to JS devs... So much hate for php these days

You know there's this Atwood's Law... "Any application that can be written in JavaScript, will eventually be written in JavaScript."

Man I only set the maximum memory usage to be 32GB and I am sure your dedi have like 128GB... you might need to change the 32768 to at least 131072

Sir that thing DOESN'T RUN ON BROWSER

I don't think a single tab can exhaust your RAM but I can try to write some that spawn workers...

Write another one that stops this from ballooning up. That would eat cpu but keep ram under check

Full 💯 utilization

Maybe I should do a campaign like in the next 15 minutes I will buy the first VPS/Dedi deal posted in this thread that's < $10/billingcycle regardless of specs or locations (and most likely I will idle super hard)

Let's call it the "FLASH BUY" campaign (or "FREE $10 FROM FAT32" campaign)

thanks, can confirm it works

Time to replace require('os').freemem() > 1e8 with true

The problem for this is it will OOM crash / segfault and cannot fully utilise the RAM
