Memory leak in CS3

I've been trying the trial version of CS3 and I've noticed
the memory leak is still there. I was
really hoping they would have fixed that.
Anyone else noticed it?

[InDesign CS3] how to find the reason of the memory leaks?

Hi all,
I'm working with InDesign CS3. I wrote a plug-in and loaded it into InDesign in debug mode. After I closed the application, I got a console window showing memory leaks as following:
Leaks! 52 leaks, 716804 bytes
Press any key to continue . . .
Does anybody know how to find the reason of the memory leaks? Thanks a lot!

Thanks Dave. I'm using Windows, and I also tried MemoryTracker. I got a Leaks.txt which shows the detail of memory leaks as following. But I really can't understand it. Any help? Thanks.

FLVPlayback Memory Leak in Flash CS3

Hi There,
I' making a flash file with AS2 in Flash CS3. I put a FlVPlayback in stage and let it load a couple of FLV files from my local HDD and playing continuously. I use "addEventListener" to check the current running flash movie is completed. After complete event occur, I load another flv movie to paly again.Here, I noticed that memory usage is increasing every time a new flv file is loaded and played. I heard "addEventListener" in CS3 is causing the memory leak and not being detected by GC.
Please let me know if there is a solution to solve the memory leak issue. I posted my codes here to know something I'm doing wrong.
Thanks in advance...
================================
onClipEvent (load)
 function _fun_complete(eventObj)
 this.autoRewind = "true";
 var _v1 = _root.v;
 var _v2 = _root.FLVlists.length;
 --__v2;
 if (_v1 < _v2)
 ++_v1;
 else
 _v1 = 0;
 this.contentPath = _root.FLVlists[_v1].path;
 var _v3 = _root.listVids[_v1].width;
 var _v4 = (stage._width - _v3) / 2;
 this._x = _v4;
 _root.v = _v1;
 this.play();
 this.addEventListener("complete", _fun_complete);

Helllo Friend,
Thanks for your feedback. The problem with removeEventListener is that , the player stops and not playing anymore. In my application, I nned to loop and play one FLV files after another. For example, I need to play 3 flv files, File1.flv, File2.flv, File3.flv. I load and play File1.flv first. Once complete event trigger from "addEventlisterner" , then I load File2.flv and then File3.flv and then Flie1.flv. So it needs play continuously and causing memory leak. Please let me know if there is another way of working around.
Regards

CS3 - Create24bitRGBPreview: Memory leak?

Hi
I use Create24bitRGBPreview to create a preview in my plugin (SDK sample PnlTrvCustomView). When I do this, I have memory leaks after finishing Indesign. I delete my allocated buffer, but there is always a leak. I don't find another possibility for the leaks. When I don't show the preview, it is OK.
Any ideas?
What could be wrong?
I have the same effect in the SDK sample! Any workarounds?
Thanks
Hans

Have you tried setting the memory allocated to Photoshop to 55% or less? You are probably starving other processes running outside Photoshop.
Reduce the memory states to no more than 20.
Is your scratch disk a fast internal one? Most external drives are too slow. You keep saying "plenty of space" but bear in mind that the scratch files will need about 10x the original file size and this soon mounts up to a lot of gigs.
With that computer you are hitting the limits for working with files of that size.

How to determine memory leaks?

I tried in XCODE, the RUN/ Start with Performance TOol / and tried out the various options. I was running my app and looking to see if it would report increasing memory use but it seemed to be looking at my total system (i was running under the simulator). In general what is the recommended procedure for determining memory leaks, which tool to use, and what tracing can i use?
How does one look at the retain count of an object? are there system routines that have knonw leaks?

You took the right path. Once instruments comes up select the Leaks tool. Turn off automatic leak detection. In your app, start off at some known state, do something, and come back to the known state and check for leaks. For instance start off in a view, do something that brings up another view then come back to the original view and check for leaks. Leaks will show you if you leaked. Since you took a very deterministic path then checked it should be straight forward to go to the code and find / fix the leaks. Leaks shows you where the code where the leak was generated.

Memory leak in JSpinner implementation (maybe others?)

Hi,
I am developing an application using Java and Swing, and have run into some problems with memory leaks. After examining the source code and making an example program (provided below), I can only come to the conclusion that there is a bug in the implementation of JSpinner in Sun Java 1.6.0_03.
If one uses a custom model with the JSpinner, it attaches itself as a listener to the model. However, it never removes the listening connection, even if the model is changed. This causes the JSpinner to be kept in memory as long as the model exists, even if all other references to the component have been removed.
An example program is available at http://eddie.dy.fi/~sampo/ModelTest.java . It is a simple swing program that has the JSpinner and two buttons, the first of which writes to stdout the listeners of the original model and the second changes the spinner model to a newly-created model. A sample output is below:
Running on 1.6.0_03 from Sun Microsystems Inc.
Listeners before connecting to JSpinner:
Model value is 0, 0 listeners connected:
Listeners after connecting to JSpinner:
Model value is 0, 2 listeners connected:
1: interface javax.swing.event.ChangeListener
2: javax.swing.JSpinner$ModelListener@9971ad
Listeners now:
Model value is 8, 2 listeners connected:
1: interface javax.swing.event.ChangeListener
2: javax.swing.JSpinner$ModelListener@9971ad
Changing spinner model.
Listeners now:
Model value is 8, 2 listeners connected:
1: interface javax.swing.event.ChangeListener
2: javax.swing.JSpinner$ModelListener@9971adThis shows that even though the model of the JSpinner has been changed, it still listens to the original model. I haven't looked at other components whether they retain connections to the old models as well.
In my case, I have an adaptor-model which provides a SpinnerModel interface to the actual data. The adaptor is implemented so that it listens to the underlying model only when it itself is being listened to. If the JComponents using the model were to remove the listening connections, it, too, would be automatically garbage-collected. However, since JSpinner does not remove the connections, the adaptor also continues to listen to the underlying model, and neither can be garbage-collected.
All in all, the listener-connections seem to be a very easy place to make memory leaks in Java and especially in Swing. However, as I see it, it would be a simple matter to make everything work automatically with one simple rule: Listen to the models only when necessary.
If a component is hidden (or alternatively has no contact to a parent JFrame or equivalent), it does not need to listen to the model and should remove the connections. When the component is again set visible (or connected to a frame) it can re-add the connections and re-read the current model values just as it does when initializing the component. Similarly, any adaptor-models should listen to the underlying model only when it itself is being listened to.
If the components were implemented in this way, one could simply remove a component from the frame and throw it away, and automatically any listener-connections will be removed and it can be garbage-collected. Similarly any adaptor-models are collected when they are no longer in use.
Changing the API implementation in this way would not require any changes to applications, as the only thing that changes are the listener-connections. Currently used separate connection-removing methods should still work, though they would be unnecessary any more. The API would look exactly the same from the view of an application programmer, only that she would not need to care about remnant listening connections. (As far as I can tell, the current API specification would allow the API to be implemented as described above, but it should of course require it to be implemented in such a way.)
Am I missing something, or is there some valid reason why the API is not implemented like this?
PS. I'm new to these forums, so if there is a better place to post these reports, please tell me. Thanks.

Another cognition: It's the following code, that causes the memory to be accumulated:
obj = m_orb.resolve_initial_references("NameService");
ctx = NamingContextExtHelper.narrow(obj);For the first 4 calls to this code the memory usage of the nameservice is unchanged. From the 5th to the 8th call, it's increased by approx. 10KB per call. And thenceforward (beginning with the 9th call) it's increasing by approx. 10MB.
What's going wrong here?

Memory Leaks Unresponsive Mouse

2009 8 core Mac Pro w/ 24 GB of RAM, ATI Radeon 4870, and a SeriTek PCIe eSATA card (card only has drives connected when running a manual drive clone). When running Toast 10 or Parallels 9, my RAM will fill up (I use a program called Menu Meters to monitor stuff). This machine worked just fine under OS 10.9 and earlier - no issues like this at all. ClamXAV will also completely fill the RAM up (the meter will be full green, instead of part green, then mostly grey when Toast or Parallels fills it up). I have to use Terminal to purge it so that the machine is usable.
The other thing that happens is that sometimes when the computer wakes up or I am in the middle of doing something, the mouse will still move, but the dock will not pop open and the left button the mouse doesn't respond. The right button will open the right click menu, but will not respond normally at all. I have tried a different Magic Mouse, but the problem is the same.
I thought that it may be a problem with the factory RAM and the Kingston RAM not playing nicely together. So I ran it with just the factory 8 GB and then ran it with the Kingston 16 GB - the problem persists no matter which RAM is installed. All of the RAM also passes the memory tests in Rember and TechTool.
So, I need to find out if someone thinks that maybe the bluetooth module may be going bad causing the mouse issues. I also need to find out what is causing the memory leaks. I followed the steps that someone gave on this site to boot into safe mode, repair permissions, reset PRAM, then reset SMC (or the other way around - I did it like they said to). It did nothing to fix the problem.
I need some guidance here. As I stated early on, the machine worked perfectly with OS 10.9. I have WAY too much software that I use, so doing a completely fresh install is out of the question - I don't have time to reload everything. This problem is annoying and I know that I am not the only one having these issues. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Here is the EtreCheck report:
Problem description:
Memory leaks when using Toast 10 or Parallels 9. Mouse also become unresponsive (it will move, but left button does not work and dock will not pop open - mouse problem happens independent of the RAM being filled up - different mouse was tried with same result).

T61 with memory leak on XP for driver battc.sys

Hi
I have an issue with XP where the battc.sys module that is part of Windows XP and responsible for the kernel side of monitoring the battery status. This module continually leaks memory until I have no more kernel paged resources left and programs start to fail on my laptop.
I raised a support case for this with Microsoft and after some investigation and upgrading to the latest T61 power drivers that were released a few days ago on the Lenovo site, MS support told me it is a fault of the T61 and that I would need to disable Microsoft APCI support to stop this memory leak from occuring and to take the issue up with Lenovo.
I have used the verifier tool to confirm that it is the Windows XP SP3 battc.sys memory module leaking.
I am running the latest T61 drivers and fully patch with MS drivers on SP3.
As MS have told me it is the fault of the T61 I am posting this issue here.
Thanks
Stephen

It is memory available to the kernelwhich itself does not show under a process in task manager as far as I am aware (unles it is taken account as part of the system process).
The best way to measure the available kernel memory space available is by using sysinternals procexp.
You need to download procexp and also install the windows debugging tools from Microsoft. Then in procexp set the "Options > Configure Symbols : Debughlp.dll path" to the new debughlp.dll installed with your debu tools and set the symbols path to srv*c:\Symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
Then you can choose in procexp "View > System Information" and see the used and total paged and non-paged kernel memory space.
poolmon helps monitor all the symbols that are taking up this memory and verifier lets you drill down to the exact module and the changes in memory for a module that is occuring.
Here are two really good links on it
http://blogs.msdn.com/ntdebugging/archive/2006/12/18/Understanding-Pool-Consumption-and-Event-ID_3A0...
http://blogs.msdn.com/ntdebugging/archive/2008/05/08/tracking-down-mmst-paged-pool-usage.aspx
In my poolmon i notice that Mmst and battc are taking alot of memory after my computer has been running for some time. Mmst being high is normal but battc should not continually be growing as it is which is why I raised the case to MS but they want verification it is not a Lenovo issue.

How do I report a major memory leak problem with Firefox 3.6.10 in WinXP?

After I installed Firefox 3.6.9 on a WinXP desktop, I occasionally had minor memory leak problems, reflected by getting "out of virtual memory" messages. I upgraded to 3.6.10 when notified that it was available and that it supposedly fixed stability problems. Ever since then, whenever I use Firefox, it starts out quick as a flash, but very rapidly slows down to a crawl, and has twice brought my system to a halt. IE does not cause this, nor any other program I use, but the execution speed of all programs slows as badly as Firefox. If I knew where to get older versions, I would back up to 3.6.9 or earlier. The situation now prevents me from using Firefox much at all.

Im running windows 7, Firefox 3.6.10 and before i updated to 3.6.10 my CPU never went above 10% with Firefox open. Now it can spike well above 50% and i have nothing different from when i had 3.6.9 to now when i have 3.6.10.
There is no evidence for me to suggest one of the additions i have is causing it, its all pointing to Firefox itself and the last update.

How can I address a memory leak problem with Firefox?

I have happily used Firefox for the past 7 years, and have rarely had difficulties. However, I am having some trouble now; Firefox (running 3.6.6) seems to have a memory leak on my machine. It's slower than what was discussed in other forum posts, but it still scales up slowly to multiple hundred MBs of Memory with very little CPU usage.
I have tried disabling add-ons and extensions, but this does not stop the problem. I have cleared my cache and other stored data, but that also does not help. Has anyone experienced a similar problem that might be able to help?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== within last two weeks

Hi reble0708,
I have Java console disabled on my Firefox browser.Everything is working fine for me. There maybe other problem on your browser which is making PDF document faded and blurry. Can you post the link where you found the problem viewing the PDF document?
Btw, you can go to ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ and select the previous version of Firefox from the given options. There's no need to uninstall Firefox before you downgrade to the previous version of it.But before new installation, backup your Firefox profile folder.
edit: replaced random unofficial download site link.

I am getting a memory leak that sometimes leads to an unresponsive Firefox, but does not crash per se.

Hello, For the last couple of months, I am having issues with one of my tabs or the program itself causing a memory leak. I was hoping that subsequent releases would fix the problem, but when I downloaded V.11 it did not help.
I use tab mix plus and at any time, usually have about 25 tabs open. Everything functioned okay for 8 or so months up until recently.
I am wondering if there is a way to try to track down what is causing the leak. If it is one of my open pages, i will get rid of it. I tried opening one page at a time from scratch, but could not find the issue. .
I always have flash block enabled to cut down on the website junk.
using OSX firefox v11.

Now, I'm not going to say it's an Add-On problem because from the research I've been doing on this problem for the last half hour shows that everyone has DIFFERENT add-ons, but everyone's having the SAME problem....
So I went through my add-ons and disabled them one by one, and the single add-on that has been giving me grief is the latest WOT add-on. So, I have Firefox 11 (so does my wife) and we both have the WOT add-on. But that's where the similarity ends... I have Windows 7 x64, she has Windows XP x86.... but she doesn't have the memory leak problem.
What I see is a sawtooth pattern over time. Memory goes up a little over 30+ seconds, then drops down. But over half an hour, the peaks of the sawtooth are larger, and it doesn't drop back down to the same level again - always a little more than before. And before you know it, FF is peaking at 1.5+GB, dropping down to 1.2GB... and FF is running very, very slowly.... excessive disk accesses (paging probably, though I apparently I still have 1.5 to 2.0 GB of free RAM). Killing FF frees it all up, and if I open FF again, it's back to using 250MB of RAM.
So, it's not the add-ons per se, but how they're interacting with FF (or the other way round).... most likely, it's this plug-in container they created to stop add-ons from taking FF with them when they crashed. Seems to have created more problems than it has solved..... would be great if you could choose not to use it....

Allocated memory pool was not deleted! 1 GB memory leak is too much for me!

Dear Sirs. I found that DB environment, that was configured to use 1 GB cache size, won't free it when closed! Why? First I tried to open and close environment and got the following:
Detected memory leaks!
Dumping objects ->
{596} normal block at 0x01970040, 1048596 bytes long.
Data: < > 14 00 10 00 DB DB DB DB 0B 00 10 00 01 00 00 00
{578} normal block at 0x00397978, 464 bytes long.
Data: < > D0 01 00 00 DB DB DB DB C7 01 00 00 01 00 00 00
Object dump complete.
I have and idea that BDB will reuse the memory, rite? OK, let's try to create the same environment and open it. After environment was opened, closed, opened again and again closed, I got the following:
Detected memory leaks!
Dumping objects ->
{3663} normal block at 0x01B80040, 1048596 bytes long.
Data: < > 14 00 10 00 DB DB DB DB 0B 00 10 00 01 00 00 00
{3645} normal block at 0x00396E60, 464 bytes long.

Data: < > D0 01 00 00 DB DB DB DB C7 01 00 00 01 00 00 00
Object dump complete.
So memory was not reused, nor deallocated.
By the way, you may be interested in other leak I found, but fixed, see
Replication manager memory leak when setting local site information.
This leak is more serious, I am not sure I will fix it quickly. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Could you please suggest something?
Thanks in advance!
With regards,
Vladislav.

OK, the problem solved by fixing code in file 'log.c', method '__log_dbenv_refresh'.
Just added the code that deallocates memory of bulk buffer.
if (IS_ENV_REPLICATED(dbenv))
if (lp->bulk_buf != INVALID_ROFF)
__db_shalloc_free(&dblp->reginfo, lp->bulk_buf);
lp->bulk_buf = INVALID_ROFF;
lp->bulk_len = 0;
lp->bulk_off = 0;
It was allocated in the '__log_open' function, by the following code:
 lp->ready_lsn = lp->lsn;
 if (IS_ENV_REPLICATED(dbenv)) {
 if ((ret = __db_shalloc(&dblp->reginfo, MEGABYTE, 0,
 &bulk)) != 0)
 goto err;
 lp->bulk_buf = R_OFFSET(&dblp->reginfo, bulk);
 lp->bulk_len = MEGABYTE;
 lp->bulk_off = 0;
 } else {
 lp->bulk_buf = INVALID_ROFF;
 lp->bulk_len = 0;
 lp->bulk_off = 0;
Sorry for time taken to read my posts, I was really needy in quick help, but solved problems myself.

Pro*c multithreaded application has memory leak

Hi there,
I posted this message a week ago in OCI section, nobody answer me.
I am really curious if my application has a bug or the pro*c has a bug.
Anyone can compile the sample code and test it easily.
I made multithreaded application which queries dynamic SQL, it works.
But the memory leaks when i query the SQL statement.
The more memory leaks, the more i query the SQL statement, even same SQL
statement.
I check it with top, shell command.
My machine is SUN E450, Solaris 8. Oracle 9.2.0.1
Compiler : gcc (GCC) 3.2.2
I changed source code which is from
$(ORACLE_HOME)/precomp/demo/proc/sample10.pc
the sample10 doesn't need to be multithreaded. But i think it has to work
correctly if i changed it to multithreaded application.
the make file and source code will be placed below.
I have to figure out the problem.
Please help

sqlnul() is used to reset the high-order bit of
the datatype and to check whether the column

CHAR datatypes have length, but zero precision and
scale. The length is defined at CREATE time.
NUMBER datatypes have precision and scale only if
defined at CREATE time. If the column
definition was just NUMBER, the precision
and scale are zero, and you must allocate
the required maximum length.
DATE datatypes return a length of 7 if the default
format is used. This should be increased to
9 to store the actual date character string.
If you use the TO_CHAR function, the maximum
length could be 75, but will probably be less
(you can see the effects of this in SQL*Plus).
ROWID datatype always returns a fixed length of 18 if
coerced to CHAR.
LONG and

so you need to set a maximum. In this example,
it is 240 characters.

Hi Jane,
What version of Berkeley DB XML are you using?
What is your operating system and your hardware platform?
For how long have been the application running?
What is your current container size?
What's set for EnvironmentConfig.setThreaded?
Do you know if containers have previously not been closed correctly?
Can you please post the entire error output?
What's the JDK version, 1.4 or 1.5?
Thanks,
Bogdan

APEX 4.1.1 Memory Leak in IE7

Hi,
We busy upgrading our apex and db from 3.0/10G to 4.1.1/11.2G and notice that there appears to be a memory leak when using APEX. At one stage we have had IE7 using over a gig of memory.
When you load or refresh your page IE7 seems to grab on average 2-5MB of memory for each page load. At first we thought it may have been our apps or setup but this also happens when we go to app 4550 page 1 on apex.oracle.com.
How to replicate:
Open task manager to view the Memory Usage.
Using IE7
1. Go to http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=4550:1
2. Go back to Task Manager and note the readings once the CPU Usage for iexplore.exe has stablised to 0.
3. go back to IE7 and press F5
4. Repeat steps 2-3 and you will see the Memory usage increases.
We think this maybe due to a few jQuery UI memory leaks within IE7 and thought this bug ticket maybe of interest http://bugs.jqueryui.com/ticket/7666 (Slightly different versions but similiar experiences)
Could someone else confirm that they also experience the increasing or have had similiar problems and managed to resolve it?
TBH, it wouldn't be an issue to use another browser like Firefox to access the builder but this also affects the applications if they include APEX standard Javascript and CSS.
Thanking you in advance.
Alistair

Don't have exact steps for replication or precise numbers, but I have noticed this in passing. On the junk that my client considers a PC suitable for web development the typical IE7 memory footprint with the APEX 3.0 builder and several other tabs running is about 52MB. Add APEX 4.1.1 and it climbs constantly until I have to pull the plug when it gets north of 150MB as the PC can't take it.
As well that I also have Firefox and 4.1.1 is still experimental at that site...
At the moment I don't have to resolve it and if I did the only option I'd propose is the replacement of IE7.

I saw that eariler this week. I do agree with the concept though.So take appropriate action: charge extra for IE7 support.
The amount of work and effort involved in making our website look normal on IE7 equalled the combined time of designing for Chrome, Safari and Firefox.Is entirely accurate. If it's stated as a requirement, itemise it as an extra on the quote.
Educate management and bean counters: show them the one line of standards-compliant CSS that's all that is necessary in Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Opera (and just possibly in IE8/9/10), how it isn't supported in IE7, and the tortuous hacks and workarounds that are required to get something equivalent working there.

Firefox memory leak, how to fix?

I've noticed i've been having memory leaks since quite a few versions before the latest one (33.1.1) and the problem still continues, i notice this more when i leave firefox open for awhile, sometimes only with youtube and couple of other "static" pages on, but i've got the same results without youtube.
Today i decided to ask the question, since i haven't seen any memory leak bugfixes in the recent changelogs and it becomes quite a problem to me because i leave it all day open and when it happens it forces me to restart (not really forces but i don't like having an 1.3GB process when i can have the same for 500~ ...)
I don't believe any of my extras are the reason for it, i've tested them over the pass'ed versions, removed a few, installed a few, always same problem.
All of this running WIndows 7 Ultimate 64-bits .
i've researched and found it's a "common" problem, but no really solution or expected bugfix soon or anything, i'm still to test it without any 3rd part extensions or plugins, but i don't (think) have any extensions that may cause this because like i said, i've changed them quite a few times.
Here is my extension list: http://i.imgur.com/Rk80ajU.png
Here is my plugin list: http://i.imgur.com/GBA0qgY.png
And here is a "Measure" report from "about:memory" : http://privatepaste.com/bcd17c1093
I just want to know why it leaks so badly, almost the double RAM it would normally use.
Currently i'm like 3 tabs with 1.25 GB (Private Set) used, when i close a few tabs, it keeps stable or even rising by a few mb.
I hope there's something useful with that report/my extensions|plugins.
Thanks for the reading.

I heard about that extension "problem" but, when i see on "about:addons-memory" from a third-party extension (that i can't remember but yo can see it in the link on OP, it only uses few megabytes (20~) , so, either it's a memory leak on the extension (if that's really the cause) a problem with my addon to view the extensions memory or a firefox one.
But i seriously don't expect that extension eats up all of this memory, but i will test it in a couple of days.
