started a new game on a large map played for about six hours, then saved and shut down elemental, generated crash zip

couple of days later loaded save game and played for approx 4 hours, and decided to save before closing down for the night, went to save game and had OOM message(ram use at time BY elemental was 1.3gb, ram free was approx 700mb, added dxdiag AND saves to the crash zip

based upon my two crashes, I will be voting AGAINST the candidate being released into the wild, as it still is not sufficiently stable in large maps and also does NOT reach the 2gb ram use figure, or even the 1.5gb use before crash that 1.1 does or the 1.6gb crash point that 1.09 did
