Bug StarMade RAM usage ignoring set limits

[Captain Siscold]

So, I just updated to 0.17 and Launcher v14 today, and it seems that StarMade now ignores the memory settings and uses as much RAM as possible. Typically, StarMade will only use around 2-3GB of RAM when I'm playing, but now its using close to 5-6GB with nothing else open. I've triple-checked the memory settings in the options, and it is definitely set to only use 3GB of RAM. Any ideas for a solution?

Computer info:
OS: Windows 8.1
CPU: Intel i5-4430
GPU: AMD HD 7870

Just checked, and the issue is still around in 0.171. I put out a bug report via the tracker, as well. Out of curiosity, has anyone else been having this problem?

Edit 9-27-2014: Adjusted memory settings higher to see if that did anything...RAM usage tried to go higher than what I had installed, then the game closed with no errors from SM or Windows.
