  2. Loading screen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_screen

    A loading screen is a screen shown by a computer program, very often a video game, while the program is loading (moving program data from the disk to RAM) or initializing. In early video games, the loading screen was also a chance for graphic artists to be creative without the technical limitations often required for the in-game graphics. [1]

  3. Escape from Tarkov - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_from_Tarkov

    Escape from Tarkov is a multiplayer tactical first-person shooter video game in development by Battlestate Games for Microsoft Windows. The game is set in the fictional Norvinsk region in northwestern Russia , where a war is taking place between two private military companies (United Security "USEC" and the Battle Encounter Assault Regiment ...

  4. RAM limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAM_limit

    Bank switching allows blocks of RAM memory to be switched into the processor's address space when required, under program control. Operating systems routinely manage running programs using virtual memory, where individual program operate as if they have access to a large memory space that is being simulated by swapping memory areas with disk ...

  5. Average memory access time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_memory_access_time

    A model, called Concurrent-AMAT (C-AMAT), is introduced for more accurate analysis of current memory systems. More information on C-AMAT can be found in the external links section. AMAT's three parameters hit time (or hit latency), miss rate, and miss penalty provide a quick analysis of memory systems. Hit latency (H) is the time to hit in the ...

  6. Static random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_random-access_memory

    Synchronous memory interface is much faster as access time can be significantly reduced by employing pipeline architecture. Furthermore, as DRAM is much cheaper than SRAM, SRAM is often replaced by DRAM, especially in the case when a large volume of data is required. SRAM memory is, however, much faster for random (not block / burst) access.

  7. Regional lockout - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_lockout

    Like in the Mega Drive/Genesis, the use of a switch will circumvent the region-lock, but won't change the language. In addition, the use of certain unlicensed backup/RAM cartridges will also allow a console to play games from different regions, except for games that use proprietary ROM-RAM carts.

  8. Memory leak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_leak

    In computer science, a memory leak is a type of resource leak that occurs when a computer program incorrectly manages memory allocations [1] in a way that memory which is no longer needed is not released. A memory leak may also happen when an object is stored in memory but cannot be accessed by the running code (i.e. unreachable memory). [2]

  9. Out of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out_of_memory

    Out of memory screen display on system running Debian 12 (Linux kernel 6.1.0-28) Out of memory (OOM) is an often undesired state of computer operation where no additional memory can be allocated for use by programs or the operating system. Such a system will be unable to load any additional programs, and since many programs may load additional ...
