    Hello,

    So when I run my game , at start it runs(still low because of low engine performance) , but then about 5 min later the game begins to run even slower , memory usage increases and then it crashes(also the did not move player or execute any in game actions)

    Also some times the editor sometimes crashes my GPU as well

    Please respond and I will post a report with a scene of this, because project is pretty large.

    does not happen in other apps on desktop

    Version Unity 5.3.1p4

    Did you try attaching a profiler and seeing what is "begin slow" and what's allocating memory?

    That doesn't sound like something Unity (or any other program) should be able to do - might be a driver issue on your end.

    I agree, but no other App on my PC causes that to happen

    Ususally i discover memory leaks by opening the Task Manager and start eliminating scene items until the memory stops increasing to pinpoint the source of the issue.

    In my case most of the time was some mesh that got created as temporary with "New mesh();" and then passed to another mesh and was not destroyed for example and stopped as soon as i turned the offending script off.

    Also are you in Windows or Mac ? There are several issues i have seen reported on Mac with major performance problems.
