No response from the reporter. In addition there doesn't seem to be anywhere close to 24GB of memory usage in the memory report. The GPU process uses approximately 1GB which seems within reasonable limits. It's possible that the reporter is looking at the reserved virtual size, but this isn't actually used memory, but without further information from the reporter this is hard to verify.
