Firfox uses too much system resource. When idle it uses around 20% CPU and more than 500 mb each of real and virtual memory. Safarai uses 0% CPU and less than 100mb real and less than 200 mb virtual memory.

It causes my macbook pro 15" to get hot.

the very problematic plugin-cointainer is the cause of all this! i assume you may be open web page that contain flash right? high system resource slowing your browsing capabilities (click,tab,openpage, slowresponse,etc)
it is very common problem in windows. you can read it in here under Known Issues->http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.6.15/releasenotes/
+Some slower machines may see degraded mouse responsiveness when viewing certain Flash videos
This PROBABLY can happen in your macosx too. Im not sure for that.
I also try firefox in Ubuntu, and suprisely it smoothly open flash video and playing FB Poker at the same time wo performance degradation .
i cant give any solution for this unless they came out with better and enhanced performance of firefox for all systems.

Get "using too much power" message when charging with USB

I have a 4th gens iPod Touch that appears to have a number of issues:
1. get "using too much power" message when charging with USB
2. can't re-boot
3. unable to access iCloud Backup, Ignore and Settings button inactive
4. unable to unlock unit when using the Home button to turn the unit on

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Too many alerts taking too much system resources in the XI system

We have been running Alerts in XI and looks like there are too many now. The alerts are stopped now from generation.
I can't even run the report RSALERTPROC successfully to delete the existing alerts from the system.
Anyone knows an alternative way to do this? Or what is the table name where the alerts are stored so that we can delete some entries.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
a. If the "Suppress Multiple Alerts of This Rule" is checked for the Rule, we shall recieve only one alert mail for a particular error category. We have to confirm the Alerts by clicking complete in the Alert Inbox.
If we dont check this "Suppress Multiple Alerts of This Rule" , we will get all the alerts without being supressed.
b. Run the Report RSALERTPROC and delete all the alerts. Let me know the difficulty in running this report as you have mentioned...
c. Run the Report RSALERTTEST to display the Alert status.
Thanks,
Tanuj

OIM 11g using too much memory and not releasing it when shutting down

Hello,
we have a problem with OIM 11g using too much memory (about 5gb) and it's not releasing it at shutdown (4gb still used).
We are using a VM with RedHat Linux 5.6. Originally we had 4gb RAM + 2gb swap file. We installed Admin Server, OAM, OIM and SOA on that machine but quickly realised we couldn't run all 4 programs at once in 6gb. AdminServer could run with 2 other products, but it was a tight fit in memory.
So we increased the RAM to 8gb (still 2gb swap file). But then our problem occured : I start the Admin Server (2.7gb total memory used), then OAM (4.6gb total memory used) and then OIM. After it started the server is now using 9.6gb of memory (~300mb of free memory) ! The problem gets even better : after I shut down everything (OIM, OAM, admin server) the "top" command show that there is still 4gb of memory used even tho nothing else is running on the server ! There is absolutely no other process (other than root stuff) running and no other users connected to the machine. After a reboot, it shows 400mb of memory used. I tried restarting the programs and it did the same thing.
Our intuition is that there might be a memory leak or some bug in OIM that might use up almost all the free memory and it's not releasing it upon shutdown. It might have been there before we increased the memory but have not noticed it since memory was already tight.
Anyone encountered the same problem ? Any idea ? Any suggestion to narrow down the problem ?
Thank you

You can adjust the memory settings for WLS by editing the setSOADomainEnv.sh file that can be found in your /middleware/user_projects/domains/<domain>/bin/ folder. There is an argument called PORT_MEM_ARGS which is used to set your Java memory arguments. This way you can decrease/increase the amount of memory used by each managed server.
I usually type "ps -ef | grep oracle" to see what processes are running by the oracle user. This way the output doesn't get cluttered with root processes.

Darn, memory usage lowered to 41MB by itself. I guess that's good. The topic can be closed.

Why does Firefox keep telling me that it is using too much memory, (eg: 235MB) and I should restart Firefox?

Lately Firefox has been popping up a warning while I am on the internet saying, that "Firefox" is using too much memory. It suggests shutting down Firefox and restarting Firefox. It also told me how much memory that is in use at that time. It is usually about 235MB or more. What is normal memory use for Firefox to use while I am on the internet? Does high usage mean that some other person is trying to get into my computer?

From reading on the internet, it appears that when there is a spike in memory usage, AVG "interprets" that as a memory leak, possibly caused by malware. AVG could be incorrect concerning that assumption. Maybe they are being a bit too conservative about memory usage; just my opinion.

Why does AVG keep telling me that Mozilla is using too much memory and I have to close and reopen the program?

the Advisor is just telling you the same thing you can see for yourself in the Task Manager; I can open firefox with only a few tabs and then watch the memory usage skyrocket when Firefox should be doing nothing - after a couple of hours it will get up to as high as 1.5GB before it completely hangs and I have to end the process in Task Manager, and this does this with all extensions disabled and in Safemode.

Apps are using too much memory. how do i find out how much each app is using?

MACAir Memory 128gb: the apps are using too much memory. i get not sufficient memory for upgrades. how can i find out how much memory each app is using?

Mavericks is designed to use RAM differently for good reason. Normal
http://appleinsider.com/articles/13/06/12/compressed-memory-in-os-x-109-maverick s-aims-to-free-ram-extend-battery-life
Mavericks uses RAM much more efficiently than any other previous version of OS X. Mavericks now has a memory compression feature that will compress the memory occupied by applications that aren't being actively used and give the freed up RAM to the application that needs it the most.

Firefox uses too much cache when commenting in Facebook - 45MB when the text is only 1kB - why?

Firefox uses too much cache when commenting in Facebook. I wrote a comment up to 1000 characters and my PC crawled. I had to wait several times for the text to catch up with my typing. I cleared caches after entering my comment and it freed up 45MB of RAM from the firefox.exe process in Windows Task Manager. Why does Firefox use 45MB when the text is only 1kB?
Another time the firefox.exe process began at 88MB and went up to 250MB whilst writing a comment, reducing to 170MB afterwards. Firefox hogs the CPU too (I tried the CPU hogging tips but none was the solution to this), but the memory usage is the issue because the CPU would not be hogged if less data was being moved or cached.
I accept some slowness on an old 1.2GHz 512MB PC but the facebook issue is much worse than other sites.

Of course it is, but there isn't much we can do about it, isn't it? Therefore I suggested firefox3, to alleviate things a little (it does it for me). Flash doesn't even work at all for me in Opera, I only get a grey window where the video should be.
Bye, signor_rossi.
The newest version of flash Plugin only works with Opera 9.5 beta. If you want to use flash with the stable Opera find an older version of the flash plug in.
Thanks for the hint, will keep that in mind in the case I will switch to Opera again (used it for a while because Firefox2 scrolling was bad, with 3 it is much better). Besides, there is a new flash version in the repos.
Bye, signor_rossi.
