Calendar process consumes over 2GB memory

When I boot Mac OSX 10.7.2, a process called Calendar runs at nearly 100% for perhaps a minute or so. When it finally quiets down, Activity Monitor shows that it has consumed 2.3 GB of memory (over half what's available). I've taken to killing this process to free the memory, with no apparent ill effects. But I'd like to know what's going on and how to fix it. Anybody seen this?
Thanks,

Oracle Instances Processes consuming too much memory

Will somebody be able to guide me with the factors that are causing too much memory consumption when a single Oracle.exe instance is started ? Due to this problem it is not possible to run 2 instances at the same time.
Oracle is running on Windows NT 4.0 SP6.
Oracle version 8.1.6.0.0
Currently we have 512MBytes of ram.(4.83G free space)
One of the Instance consumes as much as 178,320K of Ram,
another consumes about 138,000K

Oracle consumes as much memory as you want, but more memory is faster.
Review your init.ora (db_block_buffer y shared_pool_size)
(It4s posible to run 10 instances in a machine with just 1 Gigabyte and they work fine. It depends on the use of the databases, the number of users, just for production or development, etc, ...).

How do i improve processing speed on macbook pro? it has 2gb memory

I purchased my macbook pro in 2012. It has 2gb memory. Currently on OSX version 10.9.
The processing speed has decreased over a period of time. Although i don't keep heavy data in the system. I have been able to fix it couple of times, but it keeps recurring every few weeks.

You won't get full performance from Mavericks with only 2 GB of memory.
One of the myths that circulate on this site is the myth that you must maintain a certain percentage, such as 10% or 15%, of free space on the startup volume. That myth is based on nothing except the fact that people keep repeating it.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.

Nodemgr process consuming memory

All,
We have a problem we've been experiencing for some time where the nodemgr
process starts consuming over 2gig of memory - at the OS level and locking up
our server at times. This happened on Solaris 2.6
with various older versions of Forte and we were told that upgrading to
version 3J1 would resolve it.
Unfortunately, it hasn't resolved the problem. It has happened again to an
application written in 3J1 on Unix Sun Solaris 2.6.
Forte is saying that no other company has experienced this problem with 3J1 on
Solaris 2.6. Please let me know if you have so I can relate this to Forte.
Thanks,
Peggy Adrian

With J1 I don't remember it happened ...
But, my 2cents : to save the OS , set a user limit of virtual memory
usage:
I use bash, I set it with ulimit -v 256000 to 256MB.
Interestingly when Forte crashes, it uses almost that amount of memory,
and one processor (we have a dual machine). And not more (that's why the
system can't kill it :) )
By the way, we have experienced some ftexec failures (memory and CPU
consumption) with J1 too, but since they were not reproducable, we did not
reported them. My tip : there may be a problem around the garbage
collection routine (that is just a tip from the outside). It seem to
happen when something made lots of objects, and consumed lots of memory.

Also If, for e.g. firefox is consuming 700MB of memory (with a lot of tabs opened), and if i close those tabs and leave just 2 or 3 opened, the memory usage does not drop and remains at the 700MB. Thanks for your attention. Regards, Ricardo

I have the same sort of problem with 30-40 tabs, with memory usage growing until crash. It seems a lot worse after restarting from standby mode on Vista - it's often highly unresponsive for a while, then crashes.
I have a fair few plug-ins running, one of the benefits of Firefox.
Is their a way I can log memory use of parts of Firefox, particularly the plug-ins?

Why does out slapd process consume a lot of memory (1.1 GB)?

Our LDAP installation (4.1) on Solaris 5.8 consumes too much memory. It is now at 1.1 GB and rising. I have tuned the dbcachesize and cachesize parameters in the config file, but that has not helped.
I'd appreciate any help I can get in solving this problem. Also, I can't upgrade our installation due to other issues.

Which exact version are you using? There were some memory fixes in the service packs.

Kernal Panic - processes consume CPU

Recently the CPU in my MBP (Intel) is getting overloaded with certain processes, and it can cause a Kernal Panic after a period of stuttering. One case when this occurs is when I am using a browser to stream video (in this case firefox but also happens with safari) and either the Firefox bin or webkithostplugin suddenly starts returning CPU consumptions of up to 140%! (measured with iStat)
I know however that this issues isn't confined to this particular process, because the problem also occurs when I use audio workstations (Live) where the process suddenly starts consuming over 100% and everything starts to jitter.
I have installed the recent 10.6.3 update and repaired permissions.
I will paste my kernal panic report because I have no idea what else to do

Well, I have been noticing some other issues going on and am starting to think there is some link with one of the recent apple updates (10.6.4 and ProApplications perhaps). I have found that while I am running certain applications the CPU suddenly doubles in consumption. The two cases I have found are with Ableton Live and streaming video through web browsers (firefox and safari). After some time of operation, say around 5 minutes regardless of whether any other applications are running or not, the CPU suddenly spikes, stays at double the previous, and eventually starts causing the system to stutter and crash my external soundcard and drive.
I should probably make a new general post, but in the meantime if you have any suggestions or have seen other people with issues since a recent Apple update let me know.

Firefox 12 STILL consumes too much memory and periodically stalls

1. This has gone on actually since at least Firefox 8 for many of us. With Windows 7 32 or 64bit, AND we are told OTHER OS's as well, Firefox 12 IS consuming too much memory!
When FF 12 memory consumption "hits" 800MB on a 8 GB machine, and continues to slowly climb, FF 12 has code or other problems.
2. ALSO, Firefox 12 under many circumstances, is slowing to a crawl, especially in opening windows and tabs.
NOTHING we do, inspect with memory tools, etc. seems to point to any "culprits" or guide the way to researching and potentially solving these problems...and they ARE problems within Firefox 12, and likely earlier versions.
TIME TO CLEAR THE AIR?
These are problems being seen by others, with or without any (totally blanked out/disabled) Add-On's and even most Plug-In's being disabled or removed, both for testing the problems sen in FF 12.
There IS a problem, or more than one, here, and it's not isolated or "just refer to this checklist" solvable.
There's problems, perhaps memory leaks and other agenda IN THE CODE.
We users need to stop being poo-poo'ed and "pampered" by needless communications that do nothing to truly address the problems.

I encountered this after the memory leak was mentioned as pat of a slowdown issue with an add-on that has been in use as long as I've been using Firefox (All-in one sidebar -AIOS). After a relatively short length of time under both Firefox 11 and 12 it starts to slow down. Sub menus take more than a second to show up when the parent menu is clicked, links take more than a second to activate, pages don't load as quickly. (I have a 30Mbps downstream internet connection that I test regularly, and consistently shows between 25 and 30MBps speeds from multiple sites throughout the US. It's NOT my download speed.)
In looking for explanations I saw at least one mention of a memory Leak.
So I decided to test this for myself. I first removed AIOS, then re-started Firefox and just left it running. I did nothing except minimize and restore it a few times. About an hour later the memory used by FF had gone from a reasonable 42K or so, to over 200K.
I tested again after uninstalling ALL my add-ons and plug ins. The same thing happened again.
This is NOT simply high memory use. Which I interpret as a particular tasks or process using more memory than it maybe should.
This is quite clearly a memory leak. Nothing was being executed, nothing was running with Firefox, and no pages were loaded during this time. But he use memory just steadily grew.
This is clearly a new issues since I did NOT have this problem when I was using Firefox 8. If I can find an install of that I'm going back to it.
If not I'll settle for the ESR mentioned here. If nothing else it seems to have a slower leak.
I never did like the new version number / rapid release schedule. Mostly because growing version numbers at that rate made no real sense to me as a developer myself. But also because speed of release for new features should not be the target but quality. I think we can see that this has clearly fallen by the wayside.
I only wish I thought there was a viable alternative.

Help Saving Ps .psd as .pdf (balloons over 2GB won't save)

Here is my 8-bit CMYK .psd (one pixel layer, 12 font layers)
It sits on the HD at 151MB
It opens at 130MB
File> Save AS: Photoshop PDF settings:
The save process stops with cannot exceed 2GB limit.
MY QUESTION is:
Why is my .psd file going from 150MB to over 2GB .pdf (Preserve Ps Editing capabilities is unchecked)?
How should save this document as a PDF so the fonts print vector sharp through a RIP (banner poster), I don't want to outline them?
I've never seen this before and am stumped...

thanks for the input, conroy, i just redid the file in InDeisgn (cost me 2hrs)
it exported at around 135MB in about 10 seconds -- just what i would have expected -- not the gigabytes and minutes and Ps was taking before it erred
+++++++
not a good week for Photoshop here -- first my Trial is running out, then the mystery crashing and now this unusable PDF function...

RAC node process using 25% physical memory

We have a QA server is non-RAC, and production is two-node RAC. We have a migration app that does an INSERT from SELECT over 2 instances. All of the machines have been in successful day-to-day use for several months...our only troublespot seems to be the migration app.
Today we started the app on the QA server and watched the oracle processes using top. They ran normally and finished without any problems.
The same app started on either of the RAC nodes produced process memory errors and died.
As the app ran, there was a process reading the data from the source instance and a process writing to the target instance. We confirmed this by querying the session data. It doesn't matter which of the nodes runs which target process...the result is the same.
The reading process(session) on the source instance seems to run normally. The write process on the target instance, however, begins slowly accumulating memory in about 16M chunks and holds on to them.
We saw this in the RES and in the MEM columns of top. The target process never released any memory, but slowly grabbed it until its
RES was 4GB and the %MEM was about 30%. The app then died with process memory error. This is reproducible over several runs.
( Per Metalink Note 567506.1, the recommended value for Linux 64-bit is 4294967295 ..we have that set. )
There are other oracle processes and instances running on both nodes which do not seem to be affected. The total number of processes on each machine is around 750..much lower than the nprocs ulimit of 63K.
These process are both oracle sessions spawned by the app.
I haven't seen any info on the web or Metalink that matches these symptoms, so I thought I'd try the experts.
Why would the write session continuously use up physical memory, but only on RAC nodes?
We are running RHEL5 on Dell Poweredge 2950 w 16K Physical mem. Version of 10g is R2.0.4.

RES was 4GB and the %MEM was about 30%. How does the writer process work? Does it use PL/SQL? Does it use bulk processing? How does it call the reader process? Or does the reader process call it? Is this over a database link.
The app then died with process memory error. This is reproducible over several runs.If this is an Oracle server process, then there should be an entry in the alert log of the instance that recorded the crash and includes the name of the trace file generated by the crash.

Windows 7 Starter supporting 2GB memory?

I upgraded my Ideapad s10-3, (which I just bought a few weeks ago) with a 2 GB memory module. I wonder if Windows 7 Starter supports 2GB memory. In the manuals it it is said, w7 Starter does not support 2GB. However, when I start up the Task Manager it shows memory usage of over 1GB, depending on how many applications I have started. How can I check it. Any help is appreciated.

@ vijaysaradhi your link goes to this page. @ KlausWieland what does it say when you open the system settings in the control panel or by right clicking my computer and click properties. It will show you there.

Should I upgrade to Snow Leopard/ Lion using a MacBook Pro with 2.26 GHz Inetl Core 2 Duo Processor and 2GB Memory? Can my old macbook take it?

Should I upgrade to Snow Leopard/ Lion using a MacBook Pro with 2.26 GHz Inetl Core 2 Duo Processor and 2GB Memory? Can my old macbook take it?
thanks

Yes. You should be fine with Snow Leopard, but Lion requires a minimum of 2 GBs of RAM. If you upgrade to Lion I would first upgrade your RAM to at least 4 GBs if your model supports it. Also, see:
How to Install OS X Updates Successfully
A. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions:
Boot from your current OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. Then select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
B. Make a Bootable Backup Using Restore Option of Disk Utility:
Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
Select the destination volume from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
C. Important: Please read before installing:
If you have a FireWire hard drive connected, disconnect it before installing the update unless you will boot from this drive and install the update on it. Reconnect it and turn it back on after installation is complete and you've restarted.
You may experience unexpected results if you have installed third-party system software modifications, or if you have modified the operating system through other means. (This does not apply to normal application software installation.)
The installation process should not be interrupted. If a power outage or other interruption occurs during installation, use the standalone installer (see below) from Apple Downloads to update. While the installation is in progress do not use the computer.
D. To upgrade:
Purchase the Snow Leopard Retail DVD.
Boot From The OS X Installer Disc:
Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
Restart the computer.
Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple logo appears.
Wait for installer to finish loading.
E. If updating:
Download and install update(s)
Use Software Update, or
Download standalone updater(s).

Clouds process consuming 100% of cpu

Whenever MBP is not able to connect to internet, the cloudd process consumes 100% cpu.
This is draining the battery in a very short time.
Internet connectivity, either lack there of or because of corp. firewall rules send this process into 100% consumption.
Only work around is to disable all items in iCloud control panel, which is painful for access and re-sync.

Does the it eventually recover on it's own? It's possible that the JVM is doing full garbage collection. How big is your max heap size? I suggest to add some garbage collection debugging in the JVM_OPTS to see if it is Java's garbage collection or not. Might as well check the heap too, to see if it's running our of memory.
Example;
-verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintTenuringDistribution -Xloggc:/tmp/gc.log -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -XX:HeapDumpPath=/tmp

Is this the right 2GB memory for my Areca ARC-1880ix

Hello
My Areca ARC-1880ix came with 1GB of onboard memory. I am able to upgrade it to 4GB of memory. But I am only upgrading it to 2GB of memory, swapping out the 1GB stick for the 2GB memory.
I want to double check to make sure the new memory is "compatible". One of the reasons I'm checking is, while it appears that the stick will indeed fit in the board, the stick is not as "tall" as the original memory stick.
I assume I am being overly careful. I guess I could just stick the memory into the card and see if it blows up. But I figure I'd run the sticks through the experts here.
See the attached photo of the two sticks, side by side. BTW the slots align up.....
The memory stick that came with the card has these specs:
UNIGEN
UG 12T7200M8DR-8CR
1GB DDR2 800 RDIMM 240PIN
1116-ME75TDM80018CUEKRS
The memory I bought is 2GB and here are the specs:
Kingston
9905429 - 028.AOOLF
KTD-DM8400A/2G
1.8V
0000005468831

Rowby,
Do NOT order the 2GB stick from the link you provide above for a ARC-1880 series controller card. The only one that they show on that link that would be compatible is the $249 4GB 800MHz stick. If you click on the "details" button by each you can view what cards each RAM stick is compatible with.
If I were you, I would just stick with the 1GB RAM. And, if that is not fast enough for your needs, buying more hard drives would probably help your system's performance more than the cache upgrade.
