Illustrator CC (2018) will run out of memory and/or crash
Will sip every mb of your memory and won't let me zoom in after that, changes to CPU preview and will tell that there's no memory left and crash.
Happened to me several times in one day alone and with only 2 files open (light vector only). I have a 24Gb RAM workstation and it swallows 20GB in 1/2 hour.

I'm having the same problem, very simple file, and after 5 minutes, the memory Illustrator uses keeps getting higher til it reaches maximum, then my computer wants to explode ( and I have 16gb of RAM, i mean Illustrator should work just fine.)

I have some cases where Illustrator CC 2018 v22.0.1 will Not force quit, Application does not seem to be running in Activity Monitor and when I check the dock icon and try to force quit there it states Not Responding.
Any ideas??

Please tell me there is a fix for this. I am working on the simplest file imagineable with zero other programs open, and illustrator is crashing non stop. Just before that it tells me there is no Ram. Insane

Same here. After about 30 mins the app becomes unusable and the OS (High Sierra) needs to be restarted.

Having the same issue where no matter how simple the file, Illustrator maxes out RAM very quickly and causes Windows to force close applications to preserve performance.
