I think you have a memory leak :-( I have included as much information as I can think of to try to help. OEP version - 4.1.2348 OS - Win2k pro, fully SP and patched PC - AMD2000+, 1G RAM, lots of disk, 2G fixed size swap file I was downloading a project when the PC froze and the disks started thrashing. When things started working again I looked at Task Manager :-((( Project details: Downloaded - 44,158 but this was after several saved and restored sessions Queue - 4,150 tmp directory - no files queue directory - 3 files, 2MB in total Task Manager: real memory used - 796MB total memory used - 1,494MB used I watched these numbers for some half hour, they steadily increased. I stoped and saved the project, the memory use did not reduce, OEP doing nothing. I stoped OEP and the memory usage increased for a few seconds and then decreased. OEP released all of its memory ok and the total memory usage went down to 395MB I checked, and emptied the tmp and queue directories and then tried another, smaller project. About 1,000 files. Same thing, memory usage steadily increasing and not released when the project ended. I seem to remember a similar thing a couple of years ago. This seems to be a very common problem these days, there are so many leaks in Firefox its a wonder it works for any length of time. Perhaps we should stop using C and go back to Cobol :-)))) thanks |
