I guess my question would be: what are you using so much RAM for in the
first place? Just my $.02.
Also: please define 'crash'. Thanks.

Currently, iOS imposes a memory limit for AUv3 extensions. All combined
instances of an AU extension should remain below a cap of 360Mb memory
usage (on 64 bit devices).
In all hosts I've tested with, crossing this limit will crash all
instances of the extension without warning, often leading to problems
like corrupted projects etc.
- Are there any known plans to remove this 360Mb cap? Available memory
has doubled/quadrupled since the standard was introduced, so it seems
less necessary now.
- Is there a way for either hosts or extensions to catch/prevent the
crash from happening in the first place? Something a little more elegant
than going down in flames 😉
Thanks for any insights!
