Disc Utility for Parallels Prep and Memory Issue

I'm having no luck with starting threads on the Parallel's forum so here I go:
A question about configuring. I'm going to be installing Parallels 3.0 and have a Power Pro with two 500 GB internal drives. My Mac Apps and OSX are on one drive with the other one empty at the moment.
I've installed Parallels but haven't set up anything due to needing a copy of XP from our IT department. In the mean time, should I partision my second drive (currently empty) using Disk Utility or should that be left up to the Parallels installation or XP installation process?
I'm hearing elsewhere that having more than 2 GB of memory is causing problems on the Power Pro when running Parallels. Does this pertain to system memory of memory deticated to running the virtual machine?
Thanks for any help!

Parallels ultimately gives you two options…
1) Use a disk image. This is essentially like any other disk image in that it's just a file. XP installs within and operates within that file. This is what most will opt for if they have no need for a Boot Camp environment or if they have space restrictions.
2) Use a Boot Camp partition. Boot Camp…
http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/
… does in fact create a partition (else uses an entire drive) for installation and operation. The nice thing about BC is that it gives Windows your entire hardware like any other PC rather than being a virtual environment. By using a BC partition, rather than a disk image, you then have the choice of which way you wish to use Windows. For instance, if you want to play a Windows 3D game you're better off running Windows under Boot Camp. Rather, if you say want to only use Internet Explorer or Office products you can them opt for the convenience of Parallels.
The big downside to this is that you must be able to activate XP under both so in effect you need to activate twice as XP see both environments as different computers.

ulimit -s in linux gave me 10240
I monitored memory via system monitor. I found that my memory started to grow from 786MB to 1.8G
I tried creating a thread pool for 3000 Realtime thread.... My Single CPU got utilized 100% and its used 3.1GB for memory out of 3.3 and code started to hang..
My question is. How much memory does a normal realtimeThread consumes... Is there any limit in creating Realtime thread... and Why does is consumes a lot of memory. If i need to do any fine tuning please do let me know.
Hardware is not an issue in my case....
Right now i am using viritual box. We are running our code in seperate RTLinux box.

Hi Ashok ,
Cost Component Structure Applies for both Plan and Actuals ...hence mentioning admin o/h as not relevant for inventory will not serve your purpose.
Only workaround i see it to use a negligible quantity as Admin overhead is routing . Like (0.00001) Hour .
Standard Cost will have a negligible Admin overhead and in actual you will book actual hours will be be part of actual cost
This will solve your Issue..

Firefox 3.6.8 and memory issues

After the last update to 3.6.6, I disabled plugin-container per the instructions given on the forum, and my RAM problems went away. However, after the automatic update to 3.6.8, the memory problems came back, with memory usage going up to 92%. I downgraded to 3.6.4, and turned plugin-container off again; while memory usage is currently at 84%, it is not as low as it was before the upgrade to 3.6.8. (79-80%) (There is very little difference in the websites being opened on the various tabs.)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded to 3.6.8

ffs guys. It's a free browser. It's cool. We love it. But can we do something about memory issues? Almost every release has huge memory leaks.
How about halving the release points and focus on memory issues for the other half of the time. I am a long time user since way back in the day and it seems to me that instead of trying to release so many versions, we should be focused more fixing the current release.
I say put a moratorium on new features until bloat can be fixed. These experiences are starting to give me a hardon for IE again.
Screw new features. I can deal with plain old tabs like they are. I don't need more bells and whistles. This browser has been kicking ass and taking names for a loonnnggggg time. We don't need more bloat. Keep the security fixes coming but everything else can wait. Take a breath. Stop and smell the roses for a few weeks.

XML Parser for PL/SQL and related issues

I need to have further information about some of the following
issues and XML features and make a determination useful for
evaluation and recommendation:
ISSUES
1) Is there a maximum size for an XML document to provide data
for PL/SQL(or SQL) across tables, provided that no CLOB are used?
2) How about from Oracle to an XML document ?
3) Is there a ratio between XML document size and main memory and
SGA size. What are Oracle's recommendations /
4) Can the Oracle Application Server run on a DHCP NT server when
using XML parsing ? Is it NT Service Pack 3 and 4 compatible ?
5) How parsers can interact with one another or related tools ?
For example, how the XML parser for c/c++ could be useful when
using Pro*C/C++ (programmer 2000) or OCI interfaces ? In other
words, what is the business logic in using these tools ?

The limit should be what can be inserted into an object view.

The limit should be what can be retrieved from an object view.

Not directly due to the relationship between XML metadata and
data not being constrained.
: 4) Can the Oracle Application Server run on a DHCP NT server

If it can run a JavaVM with the correct permissions there are no
other special requirements.

No special requirements here.

Not really sure of your question. The XML components are useful
in any application where I am processing documents or data with
an XML structure. The choice to use XML can be based on quite a
range of requirements due to its declarative syntax and open
standards. If you give me a specific application, I can perhaps
be more helpful.

IPad 1 and memory issues

I mean this thing is slooowwww. Many apps crash back to the home screen. I have an app called System and it is showing Wired: 59MB at 36.56% What is this? Apps that are automatically on my iPad? Active shows 2MB at 13.90% and I have nothing running except this app. The reason I am bringing all this up is I was wondering is there any way to speed this iPad up? I mean the memory is atrocious! This thing is slow. And it is a brand new one that I got from the Apple store. Granted, it is not an iPad 2, as I do not have unlimited wealth, as Apple assumes we all do, it is the iPad 1. Maybe the memory issue is having too many apps downloaded? I have absolutely nothing running in the background as I close every app I open because the iPad is so slow and crashes even default email back to the home screen at times! I just want to make this thing faster like the day I first got it. Right now, it is serving as a paper weight as I can't keep anything running for very long. Things run smoothly, yes, but many things do not. Still wondering what this Wired section is, as it is taking up so much of my memory. I have only 88MB free and as soon as I open any app, that diminishes rather quickly.

No it's not jailbroken. I will never do that to any of my devices. I am talking about memory. I have plenty of storage. Just tired of apps crashing back to the home screen.

InfoPack processing (PSA and data targets in parallel) data and lock issues

Good morning,
We are on BW 3.5 and contemplating changing our InfoPackages from option 1 (PSA then data targets) to option 2 (PSA and data targets in parallel) for performance reasons (test have shown a gain of 50% in load time compared to using option 1).
Issues have been raised that using option 2 may lead to data consistency and lock issues especially for SD infosources where we are dealing with multiple daily status changes for same document that need to be read in a specific order.
From what I have read, such issues were possible in BW 2.x e.g. OSS Note 384023 and 364577. However, I am under the impression that the issues may have been resolved in BW 3.x and that it is "safe" to use option 2 (PSA and data targets in parallel).
Would really appreciate if you could please share your experience when using processing option 2 (PSA // DT) especially in a BW 3.xx system.
Thank you in advance,
Catherine

Hi Amit,
The help text (vers. 3.5) for this method of loading says simply -
"A process is started to write the data from this data packet into the PSA for each data package. If the data is successfully updated in the PSA, a second parallel process is started. In this process, the transfer rules are used for the package data records, data is adopted by the communication structure, and it is finally written to the data targets. Posting of the data occurs in parallel by packet.
This method is used to update data into the PSA and the data targets with a high level of performance. The BW system receives the data from the source system, writes it to the PSA, and starts the update immediately and in parallel into the corresponding data target"
Not sure where you got your description from, but is not explained well and confusing.
Regards,
Ken

DKA790GX Platinum and memory issues

I've had my dka790gx platinum now for approximately 2 weeks.
Build is as follows
DKA790GX-Plat - bios v1.6
AMD Phenom II X4 940
2 x 2gb Corsair Dominator 1066 (5-5-5-15 @ 2.1)
Gigabyte HD 4870x2
Creative X-Fi Extreme GF-PS
Tagan 900BZ
It has been working fine but all off a sudden I started getting the dreaded BSOD in vista 'apc_index_mismatch' and 'memory_management' - I've ran memtest and on the first test @ 45% the system reboots with 4gb of memory in. This happens whether it is running @ 800mhz or 1066mhz, I've also tried 4 x 1gb of corsair xms2 ddr 800mhz and get actually the same issue. If I run 2gb of memory then all tests are ran without any problems and again this is for both the dominator memory running @ 800 and 1066mhz, and also the xms2 memory.
I've then ran another test using the 2 x 1gb xms2 + 2 x 512mb xms2 (all ddr2 800) to give total of 3gb and ensuring all 4 memory slots are populated, and again all tests run fine.
I've tried the memory in ganged mode and unganged mode, but it doesn't make a difference, once i go over 3gb I have the problem, so is this a motherboard fault (i've opened support ticket but had to miss some info as it meant fully stripping down the pc to get hold of the sticker on the side of the pci slot) or a cpu fault seeing the memory controllers are on the cpu?

As far as overheating is concerned, it really shouldn't be a problem. Before getting a cooler for my RAM, it would get too hot to touch during full load, but would never run into any sort of problem. If you don't believe me have a look at what a SUPER*TALENT Stick looks like: http://www.pcstats.com/articleimages/200702/supertalentT1000UX2G4_full.jpg - Compare that to the dominator, The SuperTalent has to be just about the ugliest MEM-SINK you could ever lay eyes on EXCELLENT RAM though
Kind of a really silly question here: when testing below 4gb, you are testing both sticks, right? I mean they look identical, a small distraction & you're putting the same one back in...happened to me...
yep memory was tested as single chips, also as stated previously testing 4 x 1gb of other memory caused memtest to fail, but 4 x 512mb passed, so did 2 x 1gb + 2 x 512mb
memtest fails all the time when have 4gb of memory in this mother in any combination, but using pc-check all memory passes, if my works had a ddr-2 memory checker then I would have also teste the memory in that as that will pick out memory faults better than any software
Also when the dominator is in slot 1 there is about 1cm between heatsink and dominator fins at the most, so this be a possible cause of the memory getting too hot especially as I would leave the machine on 24/7, but as I've re-setup another machine to do the stuff this machine was doing then i'm hoping i don't see the problem..

Psedbtool, a utility for PSE 6 and 7 catalogs

Ive created a free utility, psedbtool, for use with Adobe Photoshop Elements (PSE) 6.0 and 7.0 (Windows only). With psedbtool you can:
- Detect problems with the locations of files recorded in PSEs catalog.
- Extract the catalog contents into text files readable by Excel and other tools.
- Write the metadata of cataloged photos and files more reliably than with PSE.
This helps you maintain your PSE catalog, work around PSE bugs, use third-party tools with your catalog, and migrate your files and metadata into other programs.
To download psedbtool, go to http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/.
This is the first version, so Im sure there are bugs and misfeatures. Please email bugs, suggestions, and feedback (click on my name above for my address).

I'm afraid I won't be doing a version for PSE 5 :-( The internal database schema for versions 5 and earlier is completely different. It's also a lot easier to poke in the version 5 database using Microsoft Access.

TS4526 Found a fix for the time and date issue

ROKU GEN 3

I am simply lookig for some help not an argument. I am not an RF specialist however have setup a few wireless networks in my tenure at Wynn Resorts. I fully agree that wireless networking is an art and a science however the powers that be in Network Land have toughted wireless networking is the easiest and quickest way to get two computers to talk with one another. As I previously said I have already turned one (1) MBP in for this problem and Apple decided to replace it because they could not fix the problem with my particular MBP. This MBP was running Leopard when the problems started
I am having a hard time believeing that there are several other devicces in my home that depend on a wireless network to operate and my MBP is the only one having an issue. I took this a step further and decided to see what would happen if I tried to connect wirelessly via Fusion. In Windows 7 I am able to print and scan to my hearts content without any issues. I am able to browse the internet as much as I want. I close Fusion and try to connect to my printer via wireless and nothing.
In order to get Apple to help do I need to get a Network Analyzer and capture packets when I have these problems? Out of the 1000 + posts is there a consolidation of which answer is the best? BTW I am accessing the internet via a wireless connection using Fusion and Windows 7.
In response to Linc's comments, I will look at the router specifications however I did not qualify that these devices are not using the wireless connection at the same time. Right now I would guess there are maybe two (2) or three (3) at the most that are actively transmitting / receiving information. -- Thanks

Optimum Configuration for Parallels 5 and Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

I have a battery and Memory issue - late macbook pro 2011

Macbook Pro 13" Late 2011 Model
Battery Issue
After upgrading to Lion, my batter life is 3 hours after full charge. It was 7-8 hours in leopard.
Hoping this is a common issue and someone has a quick solution.
Memory Issue
I had 4GB Ram and found it would run to virtually nothing and not free any inactive RAM. I though the solution to this was to buy more RAM, which I did.
I now have 8GB RAM and it agains runs to virtually nothing on non labour intensive software like safari or mail. It doesnt free up any RAM when it reaches a certain point. Instead it freezes and I'm forced to restart the computer. I use Final Cut Pro X and Photoshop/Illustrator fairly regualry. I'm assuming the RAM is is used with those but even when these are closed the RAM is low.
Any ideas?
Cheers

You should take your Mac to an official apple retail store, as it is not common to have these problems regarding battery and memory.

FlashBuilder for PHP 4.5 memory issue

Hi,
I'm fairly new to flex and could use a little help. I have setup a project with FB for PHP and connected it using the PHPZend dataservices.
When I do this it creates valueObjects in my flex project and I can then bind my data componets.
I've done all of this using examples from adobeTV so i suppose I'm doing it the right way.
I have a very simple two state stage with a search input which takes a string and then call's the php service which returns data into a list which has a custom item renderer.
With each search the result data that is returned from the service is completely different values.
While testing the application I noticed that it's memory usage keep's increasing, so after a little digging I have run profiler on the project and watched the Live Objects to see what is holding the memory.
It seems to me that when a service is called the results are returned into a valueObject which was created by the FB for PHP introspector, and it seems that even though a new request has been made the old data is still held in memory.
As you can see the two items at the top of this screenshot are the two services that I'm calling. On the search I use the MasterRepList service to get a list of names (about 1000 of them) and then from what is selected there I query the EditionAdList service passing it the name from the search input.
This then returns the results into the next state in the list with custom item renderer.
I have run the search a few times before taking this screenshot and each search returned less than 150 items in the arraycollection...
So my question is this.
How can I clear out the memory in the two valueObjects when a new search is performed as having it keep growing is going to crash the pc pretty quickly?
I'm not doing anything special just making a query and displaying the results... I dont want to be able to dynamicaly have it refresh or allow them to change any of the info.. just query and display the info....
If the list require's refreshing then I will have a seperate function handle this which will also need to clear out the valueObjects first then repopulate it.
Sorry for the long post and what may appear to be vague description... I'm still learning and would really appreciate any help offered.
Cheers
Steve

Printer Utility for Canon i9900 and OS 10.5.4

I'm having trouble getting my System to recognize the printer utility for my Canon i9900. I can print with the standard mac printer utility but I don't get all the functionality. I've tried Printfab as well, no luck. Any ideas?

How is the printer connected? Usually the utility will only work if the printer is connected via usb. I don't think there is a Gutenprint driver for this printer, but the utility will also only work when the printer has been added with the manufacturer's driver.
Hope this helps.
