WAS memory usage
Hi,
I want to know how is possible to save in a log or a trace the memory information from WAS. I want to get, for example, the JVM memory usage, processor ocupation, connection pools, etc.
The intention is to make an stress test with this results.
Thanks in advance to all.
Hi Jose,
you can use profiling tool Wily Introscope or SAP Monitoring tool save all this information when doing Stress tests
see the descriptions under:

When loading a page with many hires images, Firefox becomes really slow and scrolling becomes jumpy then eventually becomes completely unresponsive. Unusual high memory usage of up to 2gigs just for firefox when loading these pages. This was never a problem with v3.6.
I encountered the same type of problem. Firefox running terribly slowly and slowing down my entire machine (Core i5 with 256GB SSD). Searching the forums, I found a couple of things about troubleshooting performance issues, one of which was to use '''hardware acceleration''', that is on by default. It was turned on on my PC, '''so I tried deactivating it, and it worked!'''
So doing the exact opposite as Mozilla support said solved the problem. It is really a pain now to work with Firefox. I'm using it because I have no choice, but I'd recommend IE and Chrome over Firefox... Whatever, the market will decide once Firefox has become to crappy... -
Problem with scanning and memory usage
I'm running PS CS3 on Vista Home Premium, 1.86Ghz Intel core 2 processor, and 4GB RAM.
I realise Vista only sees 3.3GB of this RAM, and I know Vista uses about 1GB all the time.
Question:
While running PS, and only PS, with no files open, I have 2GB of RAM, why will PS not let me scan a file that it says will take up 300Mb?
200Mb is about the limit that it will let me scan, but even then, the actual end product ends up being less than 100Mb. (around 70mb in most cases)I'm using a Dell AIO A920, latest drivers etc, and PS is set to use all avaliable RAM.
Not only will it not let me scan, once a file I've opened has used up "x" amount of RAM, even if I then close that file, "x" amount of RAM will STILL be unavaliable. This means if I scan something, I have to save it, close PS, then open it again before I can scan anything else.
Surely this isn't normal. Or am I being stupid and missing something obvious?
I've also monitored the memory usage during scanning using task manager and various other things, it hardly goes up at all, then shoots up to 70-80% once the 70ishMb file is loaded. Something is up because if that were true, I'd actually only have 1Gb of RAM, and running Vista would be nearly impossible.
It's not a Vista thing either as I had this problem when I had XP. In fact it was worse then, I could hardly scan anything, had to be very low resolution.
Thanks in advance for any help55%, it's still 1.6Gb....there shouldn't be a problem scanning something that it says will take up 300Mb, then actually only takes up 70Mb.
And not wrong, it obviously isn't releasing the memory when other applications need it because it doesn't, I have to close PS before it will release it. Yes, it probably is supposed to release it, but it isn't.
Thank you for your answer (even if it did appear to me to be a bit rude/shouty, perhaps something more polite than "Wrong!" next time) but I'm sitting at my computer, and I can see what is using how much memory and when, you can't. -
Memory usage of excel stays high after Macro is executed and excel crashes after trying to close it
Hi,
I'm trying to resolve an issue with an excel based tool. The macros retrieve data from an Oracle database and do calculations with the data. They also open and write into files in the same directory. The macros all run and finish the calculations. I can
continue to use and modify the sheet. I can also close the workbook, however excel memory usage I see in the windows Task manager stays elevated.If I close Excel it says: Excel stopped working and then it tries to recover information...
I assume something in the macro did not finish properly and memory was not released. I would like to check what is still open (connection, stream or any other object) when I close the workbook I would like to have a list of all still used memory. Is there
a possibility to do so.

Good day to you all,
Im using the miracl library for my program(www.shamus.ie). it is a c/c++ library
I compiled its dll and made it run on windows.
i also compiled it on linux but i didnt use the exact source codes because there are differences in compiling in linux.
my problem is that memory usage on windows is 4mb per client while on linux, it is 23mb per client.
Is it because i compiled the linux version wrong?
should windows memory usage be way lower than linux memory usage?
should i run my app on a linux or windows?
Is JNI really faster on windows?
Thanks

Tracking Memory usage on iOS using the Stats class
I've been checking memory usage on an app I'm developing for iOS using the Stats class https://github.com/mrdoob/Hi-ReS-Stats ( http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/mobile/WS4bebcd66a74275c3-315cd077124319488fd-7fff.html#WS 948100b6829bd5a61637f0a412623fd0543-8000).
I added the Stats class to my project and redeployed and, yikes, memory usage reported in Stats creeps up (pretty slowly) even when there's nothing happening in the app (just showing a loaded bitmap).
To try and track down the issue I created a project with a test class that extends Sprite with just this single call in the constructor :-
addChild( new Stats() );
I deployed it to the device to check that it didn't gobble any memory.
But I was Suprised to watch the memory usage creep up and up (to approx 5) before some garbage collection kicked in and takes memory back down. I left it running and then it crept up again to over 7.5 this time before being kicked back down to just below 3.
So 2 related questions that I'd appreciate any feedback/observations/thoughts on :-
1 - Is this normal (i.e. memory creeping up when there's nothing other than Stats in the project) ?
2 - What is the best way to monitor memory usage within an app ? Is Stats good enough - is Stats itself causing the memory usage ?
All the best guys !Also see thread (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4280020#4280020)
My conclusions are :-
- If you run an app and leave it idle, memory usage gradually creeps up (presumably as memory is being used to perform calcs/refresh the display etc)
- Periodically the garbage collection kicks in and memory is brought back down
- This cycle could be in excess of 5 mins
Run with your real app and memory will increase and be released much more rapidly/regularly.
- It's probably worth performing initial checks by running on your desktop to iron out any initial problems -
Extensive (very very very extensive) memory usage of host application with CS extension
Hi!
I tried this only under Photoshop CS5 and InDesign CS5 under Windows 7.
When you open and close CS extension panel, the memory taken by Photoshop (InDesign) increases by 6-30MB!
In case of the simple HelloPhotoshop (HelloInDesign) panel from the examples, compiled in release mode, when you open it and close, - it's about 6-10MB each time you do it. And in case of a more complex panel, which uses AIR, etc. it's about 30MB per one panel close/open.
When I use some panels in 5-10 minutes Photoshop (InDesign) increases its memory pool from 600MB up to 1,2 GB. And more. And this memory is never freed, only until Photoshop (InDesign) shutdown.
I tried freeing all my arrays, killing display objects, etc. - nothing helped. Even a simple HelloPhotoshop (HelloInDesign) that does nothing eats memory.
By the way, InDesign eats memory a lot faster .James, thank you for the very fast answer! I did various tests on the weekend on my computer and computer of my friend.
And I can say, that Debug flag doesn't affect memory consumption. They still eat memory. My steps to reproduce are as follows:
(Windows 7 32 bit)
Photoshop CS5:
1) set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\CSXS2Preferences\PlayerDebugMode to 0
2*) check HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\CSXS2Preferences (just in case)
3) Compile HelloPhotoshop example to ZXP and install via Extension manager
4) restart computer
5) Run Photoshop CS5 - Memory consumption: 100 096 KB
6) Open HelloPhotoshop and close it 10 times
7) Memory consumption: 155 840 - 5,574 MB per one close/open
Maybe a garbage collector is expected to run and free this memory, but it never happened in my case. The memory pool was increasing to 1 GB when I was working with one of my panels - with no documents open in Photoshop
In InDesign I tried the same thing with HelloInDesign ( I had to close the panel completely and then open with Window | Extensions | HelloInDesign)
Memory consumption on start: 118 516
Memory consumption after 10 open/close cycles: 197 516
It's 7,9 MB per one close/open
It's the simpliest panel test. When I'm using AIR libraries the memory usage is increasing a lot faster. -
Very high memory usage..possible memory leak? Solaris 10 8/07 x64
Hi,
I noticed yesterday that my machine was becoming increasingly slow, where once it was pretty snappy. It's a Compaq SR5250NX with 1GB of RAM. Upon checking vmstat, I noticed that the "Free" column was ~191MB. Now, the only applications I had open were FireFox 2.0.11, GAIM, and StarOffice. I closed all of them, and the number reported in the "Free" column became approximately 195MB. "Pagefile" was about 5.5x that size. There were no other applications running and it's a single user machine, so I was the only one logged in. System uptime: 9 days.
I logged out, logged back in, to see if that had an affect. It did not. Rebooted and obviously, that fixed it. Now with only FireFox, GAIM, and a terminal open, vmstat reports "Free" as ~450MB. I've noticed if I run vmstat every few seconds, the "Free" total keeps going down. Example:

In any event, we can see that FireFox is sucking up 145MB (??!?!!? crazy...) XSun, 200MB, and java 190MB. I'm running Java Desktop System (Release 3) so I assume that is what accounts for the the high memory usage RE: java process. But, XSun, 200MB?
Is this normal and I just need to toss another gig in, or what?

Very high memory usage with Yahoo Mail
After using Yahoo Mail for an hour or so my memory usage increases to a very high level.
Just now, after reading and deleting about 50 e-mails (newsletters etc.) I noticed Firefox 17 running slowly and checked the memory usage in Windows Task Manager (I am using XP) and it was 1.2 Gb. My older laptop only has 2 Gb of RAM. Yahoo Mail was the only thing open at the time.
I never notice this problem with Gmail which I mainly use. However I use Yahoo Mail for quite a few newsletters etc. that are less important and which I only check once a week or so.
I found the following bug report about 3 years old which almost exactly describes my problem.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=506771
But this report involves a much earlier Firefox version, and at the end it seems to say that the problem was fixed. However it well describes my current issue with Firefox 17, especially the continual increase in memory while using the up/down arrow keys to scroll through Yahoo e-mails.
Is this normal to have to shut down and reopen Firefox every hour or so to clean out the memory? For some reason I only notice this when using Yahoo Mail. After using many other sites and having multiple tabs open for several hours I rarely reach that kind of memory usage. About the highest I've seen with other sites after a couple of hours is 600 Kb which is roughly when I start notice slower response times.See also:
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/firefox-uses-too-much-memory-ram

Massive memory usage when using latest version of final cut, 10 minutes after restart.
Hey I am really struggling with using Final Cut Pro X and I suspect there is some software issue.
I am editing a one minute video clip, the video files are 1080 h264. I restart my computer and only open final cut. After 10 minutes of editing I cant barely navigate my computer anymore as it is going so slow, until eventually I have to force reboot my computer. I can scarcly export anything out of final cut, when I do my computer feels like its about to die and if it exports I seem to get broken frames and/or missing media.
I reinstalled my mac only about 2 months ago.
System specs.
Mac book pro.
13-inch, Late 2011
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
On my previous mac book pro (early 2010, 4 gm ram), running snow leopard and previous versions of final cut I was able to edit 3, 1 hour documentaries with very little problem, but now I cant even manage a one minute clip.
Not sure what to do. Here is a screen shot of my memory usage. Im getting massive swap memory and lots of inactive memory. It seems very strange. Especially after only 10 minutes running only final cut.FCP is only using 409 MBs of memory out of your 4 GBs. But whatever else you have open is using up virtually all the physical RAM you have. This is forcing the memory manager to page memory out to the disk-based VM file. That's a major reason for major slowdowns.
You have 4 GBs of RAM. How many applications are you running concurrently? If you look at Page outs: you will note the positive number in parentheses. That means your computer is hitting the hard drive a lot because the memory demands are too high. If possible cut down on how many concurrent applications you run or put more RAM into the computer, if that's possible.

Performance Guidelines- Memory Management in Mac OS X
A detailed look at memory usage in OS X
Understanding top output in the Terminal
The amount of available RAM for applications is the sum of Free RAM and Inactive RAM. This will change as applications are opened and closed or change from active to inactive status. The Swap figure represents an estimate of the total amount of swap space required for VM if used, but does not necessarily indicate the actual size of the existing swap file. If you are really in need of more RAM that would be indicated by how frequently the system uses VM. If you open the Terminal and run the top command at the prompt you will find information reported on Pageins () and Pageouts (). Pageouts () is the important figure. If the value in the parentheses is 0 (zero) then OS X is not making instantaneous use of VM which means you have adequate physical RAM for the system with the applications you have loaded. If the figure in parentheses is running positive and your hard drive is constantly being used (thrashing) then you need more physical RAM.
Adding RAM only makes it possible to run more programs concurrently. It doesn't speed up the computer nor make games run faster. What it can do is prevent the system from having to use disk-based VM when it runs out of RAM because you are trying to run too many applications concurrently or using applications that are extremely RAM dependent. It will improve the performance of applications that run mostly in RAM or when loading programs. -
Extremely high memory usage after upgrading to Firefox 12
After I upgraded to Firefox 12, I began frequently experiencing Firefox memory usage ballooning extremely high (2-3GB after a few minutes of light browsing). Sometimes it will drop back down to a more reasonable level (a few hundred MB), sometimes it hangs (presumably while trying to garbage collect everything), and sometimes it crashes. Usually the crashing thread cannot be determined, but when it can be, it is in the garbage collection code ( [https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/list?signature=js%3A%3Agc%3A%3AMarkChildren%28JSTracer*%2C+js%3A%3Atypes%3A%3ATypeObject*%29] ).
I was able to capture an about:memory report when Firefox had gotten to about 1.5 GB and have attached an image.
A couple of things I've tried. I have lots of tabs open (though the Don't load tabs until selected option is enabled), so I copied my profile, kept all my extensions enabled, but closed all my tabs. I then left a page open to http://news.google.com/ and it ran fine for several days, whereas my original profile crashes multiple times a day.
I also tried disabling most of my extensions, leaving the following extensions that I refuse to browse without:
Adblock Plus
BetterPrivacy
NoScript
PasswordMaker
Perspectives
Priv3
However, the problem still happened in that case.
Don't know if any of this helps or not. I'm looking forward to trying Firefox 13 when it comes out.hello, thanks for reporting back with detailed information.
from a brief look at your extensions i don't recognize any known (to me at least) memory leaking ones. in the last weeks there were also reports about the java plugin causing high memory consumption in combination with firefox 12 - in case you have it installed in firefox > addons > plugins try disabling it for a few days & test how firefox is behaving with many tabs.
& although probably not related to the memory problems you could update your graphics driver to get better results with hardware acceleration in firefox - this is the latest driver by intel for your model & os:

SA520W - High memory usage, possible fix in 2.2.0 firmware?
As suggested by Thomas Watts, I'm starting a new thread to discuss the new SA520W firmware (2.2.0) and a possible resolution to high memory usage I'm experiencing on my network.
My current setup is: 16Mbit DSL > SA520W > SA300-10, all with stock settings (no fancy VLAN's etc.)
I have 4 CentOS 5/6 servers and a Windows 7 Ultimate station connected to the switch. I use CIFS to connect from Windows station to the other Linux servers and send large files. I currently notice the following behavior:
When the file transfer starts, the Intel 1Gbit NIC is nearly saturated, hitting 115MB/sec. After few seconds, the data transfer comes to a halt and the transfer speed drops to around 50MB/sec. If I check the memory usage before the file transfer, it is approximately to 50-60% (on a fresh router reboot). Every time I send large files to other machines, the router memory consumption increases and it does not lower after a reasonable delay. I end-up with high memory near 90% and the only solution I have is to reboot the router in order to bring it back to 50%.
Now, Thomas told me that this is simply a cosmetic issue, the memory is not actually 90% used. Yet, when the memory hits this threshold, I'm not capable to send files are normal LAN speeds I'm used to. Rebooting the router allows me to send only ONCE (and for few seconds) data at the expected LAN speeds.
I would apreciate any input from Cisco engineers as well other users who experience the same issue. I would also like to know if any related work was done into 2.2.0 firmware and when we expect to have it released to users.
Regards,
Floren MunteanuHi Tom,
See below the answers.
Are you currently running the 2.1.71 code?
Yes
Are you using IPS?
No, the LAN is for internal use (no external users allowed)
Are you using Protectlink services?
No
Hardware wise, I did not changed anything on machines. All boxes have dual Intel EXPI9301CT NIC's (LACP was planned) but I currently use single connections for sanity reasons (disks won't allow greater speeds anyway). Previous to Cisco, I used a Netgear ProSafe router + switch which did not encountered the issues I mention. Honestly, at first I thought I'm dealing with some stupid disk issues on Windows. So I ran a quick test and the stats are proper:
> winsat disk -drive c

> Disk Random 16.0 Read 2.47 MB/s 4.4

> Responsiveness: Grouped IOs 8.34 units 7.4
> Responsiveness: Long IOs 5.59 units 7.7
> Responsiveness: Overall 46.63 units 7.1
> Responsiveness: PenaltyFactor 0.0
> Disk Sequential 64.0 Write 117.03 MB/s 6.7
> Average Read Time with Sequential Writes 6.977 ms 5.3
> Latency: 95th Percentile 32.720 ms 3.0
> Latency: Maximum 118.231 ms 7.6
> Average Read Time with Random Writes 13.346 ms 3.7
> Total Run Time 00:01:39.50
As I mentioned before, everything is pretty much stock on router/switch settings. If you have any tips that allow me to identify the cause, I would appreciate the input. What puzzles me is the speed drop and quick memory usage increase. It occurs 7-10 seconds after the transfers begins. It looks like the data transfer hangs for a very short period of time (less than half of second) and the transfer speed decreases from 110-115MB/sec to 50-60MB/sec. The transfer is completed at this speed. No matter how many other files I try to transfer after, the speed won't go higher than 60MB/sec. If I reboot the router, I get the same cycle. -
Firefox regularly creeps up to about 350 mb of memory usage. It runs poorly, crashes, etc. I read some other posts about how to reduce the its memory usage via about:config tweaks. I made adjustments to browser.cache.disk.capacity (was set to over 1,000,000, reduced to 50,000) and config.trim_on_minimize. However, memory usage has not decreased. I also see the value browser.cache.disk.smart_size_cached_value;1048576. I changed this to 50,000 also, but it reverts to the original number after every restart.
I have 3 tabs open right now (Hotmail, Google, and this page) and memory is at 242,000.
I should also note that I recently reformatted my hard drive. Firefox has almost no extensions or plug-ins installed (other than things like Flash and Silverlight). I'm running Windows 7 64-bit, and have 6 gb of RAM.
Any suggestions for alleviating this problem would be greatly appreciated.235 to 285 MB seems to be a rather low notification threshold on a PC that has 3GB installed, not even 10% of RAM being used and that message is triggered.
That's a new feature in AVG, and I suspect it might need a little tweaking. Unfortunately AVG didn't seem to provide any user adjustments into that feature, so the best thing to do is turn it off if that warning message appears too often.
Here's an AVG support thread where the users says he gets that message with IE, Chrome, and Firefox. <br />

High memory usage OSX Lion on iMac
Hi,
Recently upgraded 2006 iMac 6.1 to OSX 10.7.2 (4GB). Noticed performance dropped significantly when 2 or more users are logged in especially when switching users. Observed memory usage for OSX Lion is far higher than Snow Leopard! By startup 2GB real memory already allocated and often down to last 500MB. Performance appear to slow down due to swapping as swap i/o appears to increase.
On snow leopard I had 6 users logged in and 4GB was plenty. Lion appears to be a MS product!!!!
Anyone else experienced high memory usage on Lion and any ideas how to reduce memory consumption?
Unfortunately at the maximum memory capacity for my my iMac so need to find ways to reduce memory usage. There must be a kernel compiler option that could reduce memory.....
Also considering SSD drive to speed up swap i/o read/writes.
Otherwise will have to go back to leopard :-(
Thanks for any help in advance.
-Dav
PS> OSX Lion is alot more stable than previous OSX releases with this iMac model. Especially iMacs suffering the notorious NVDIDIA GPU heat problems...You mac can handle up to 3gb of ram, but slightly more will be available with 4gb installed. For Lion to run smooth, a true 4gb of ram is preferred, which may explain the sluggishness of your mac.

High memory usage on JDBC 10.2.0.1.0 driver on Prepared/Callable Statements
We are observing high memory usage for each callable/prepared stmt, using 10.2.0.1.0 JDBC Driver. The char[] in oracle/jdbc/driver/T4CVarcharAccessor was alloted 64K to 320K and grows with usage. This problem is worse with 10.1.0.2. driver which was alloted 720K byte of memory for each stmt right at the start.
We found this by doing a JVM heap dump and analyzing the heap dump using IBM's heap analyser. Here is a snapshot of the heap dump for this object:
321,240 [216] 11 oracle/jdbc/driver/T4CVarcharAccessor 0x72752968
- 320,616 [320,616] 0 char[] 0x72761028
- 216 [216] 0 short[] 0x727527d8
- 72 [32] 1 java/lang/String 0x727530a0
- 24 [24] 0 int[] 0x72752938
- 24 [24] 0 int[] 0x72752948
- 24 [24] 0 int[] 0x72752958
- 16 [16] 0 bool[] 0x72752928
- 16 [16] 0 byte[] 0x727528b0
- 16 [16] 0 bool[] 0x72752918
- 10,336 [88] 15 oracle/jdbc/driver/T4CMAREngine 0x712e7128
- 1,544 [1,032] 79 oracle/jdbc/driver/T4CPreparedStatement 0x72754c58
It is repeated many times for each prepared/callable stmt call.
Details of our platform is:
Database - Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
JDBC Driver - Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) JDBC Drivers
JDK - [Classic VM, Version 1.4.2] from [IBM Corporation]
Our callable stmts are not using any of the Oracle caching facility. It is a simple call stmt with OUT parameters and the stmt is closed after each execution. However, we implement our own connection pooling and do not close the connection after each stmt.
Is there a workaround to this? Would appreciate any feedback.What is happening is that each new CallableStatement you create allocates a new char[]. I would strongly encourage you to use the implicit statement cache if at all possible. That way instead of creating a new statement each time with a new char[] you will get an already existing statement and reuse the existing char[]. Closing a statement releases the char[] so if you really are closing the statements the char[]s should be GC'd.
