Allocating too much RAM will, at best, just waste a ton of RAM that will never actually get used. At worst, you have a memory leak which silently builds up to your maximum allocation and then forces a full clear, which can freeze your game for several seconds.

- Right amount of RAM to allocate to Minecraft if I have 32gb?
Allocating too much ram means you'll lag when the garbage collection has to clear all of it, and having too little leads to stuttering, so its better to experiment, which is how I got my rule above, by experimenting with different amounts of mods/ram.
Jan 15, 2021 · If you want to force Minecraft to use that amount of memory, you should use -Xms instead of -Xmx. This is the option that forces Minecraft to use that amount of memory (actually, this is simply an option to let Minecraft reserve a specified amount of memory and use it from there when needed.)
Also, allocating too much RAM can actually reduce performance. For vanilla, you only need to allocate 2GB at most.
Oct 28, 2020 · That said, TMCW does use over twice as much process memory (around 500-600 MB) as heap space (about half out of 512 MB allocated), though this is perfectly normal and should decrease as heap usage increases (i.e. with 1 GB heap allocated I'd expect overall usage to be around 1.3 GB).
It depends on whether the game is running out of memory. Check the top right of the F3 menu, if the allocated memory is nearing the maximum, you might want to consider bumping it up, because if it is running out, it will struggle to read data quickly enough to maintain a good framerate, or outright crash.
