Why would firefox be using so much memory that the application itself freezes to the point where I have to force the program to end?

For the past few days, I've been doing research for a presentation that I am doing for college. As I've been using Firefox, the program freezes to the point where I have to force the program to terminate. I have a computer with 8 gigs of ram and an i5 quad core processor running at 2.8 ghz. There are no viruses or spyware on the system, and there isn't anything else running. There are no addons applied to my browser, and no personas. There should be no memory issues to the point where an internet browser would freeze this badly.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

After upgrading to 7.0.1, I've found that this version uses too much memory. How can I go back to a prior version?

firefox freezes up/stops responding frequently, and pages load slowly. Also, adobe flash keeps crashing.

Upgrade your browser to Firefox 8 and check

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?

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.

What is maximum amount of memory that oracle db can utilize ?

Hi
Thank you for reading my post
What is maximum number of memory that oracle database can utilize for each of its memory structure like sga, caches....
Thanks

ps, the following may help too
VLM) Configurations
Oracle Database for Windows supports Very Large Memory (VLM) configurations in Windows 2000, Windows 2003, and Windows XP, which allows Oracle Database to access more than the 4 gigabyte (GB) of RAM traditionally available to Windows applications.
Note:
This feature is available on Windows 2000, Windows 2003, and Windows XP only with Intel Pentium II and above processors.
Specifically, Oracle Database uses Address Windowing Extensions (AWE) built into Windows 2000, Windows 2003, and Windows XP to access more than 4 GB of RAM.
The requirements for taking advantage of this support are:
1. The computer on which Oracle Database is installed must have more than 4 GB of memory.
2. The operating system must be configured to take advantage of Physical Address Extensions (PAE) by adding the /PAE switch in boot.ini. See Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q268363 for instructions on modifying boot.ini to enable PAE.
3. It is advisable (though not necessary) to enable 4GT support by adding the /3GB parameter in boot.ini. See Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q171793 for additional requirements and instructions on modifying boot.ini to enable 4GT.
4. The user account under which Oracle Database runs (typically the LocalSystem account), must have the "Lock memory pages" Windows 2000 and Windows XP privilege.
5. USE_INDIRECT_DATA_BUFFERS=TRUE must be present in the initialization parameter file for the database instance that will use VLM support. If this parameter is not set, then Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1) or later behaves in exactly the same way as previous releases.
6. Initialization parameters DB_BLOCK_BUFFERS and DB_BLOCK_SIZE must be set to values you have chosen for Oracle Database.
Note:
The total number of bytes of database buffers (that is, DB_BLOCK_BUFFERS multiplied by DB_BLOCK_SIZE) is no longer limited to 3 GB.
Dynamic SGA and multiple block size are not supported with VLM. When VLM is enabled, the following new buffer cache parameters are not supported:
o DB_CACHE_SIZE
o DB_2K_CACHE_SIZE
o DB_4K_CACHE_SIZE
o DB_8K_CACHE_SIZE
o DB_16K_CACHE_SIZE
o DB_32K_CACHE_SIZE
To select the block size for the instance, use the initialization parameter DB_BLOCK_SIZE. The buffer cache size is set by the initialization parameter DB_BLOCK_BUFFERS.
7. Registry parameter AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY must be created and set in the appropriate key for your Oracle home. This parameter is specified in bytes and has a default value of 1 GB. AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY tells Oracle Database how much of its 3 GB address space to reserve for mapping in database buffers.
This memory comes from the 3 GB virtual address space in Oracle Database, so its value must be less than 3 GB. Setting this parameter to a large value has the effect of using more of the address space for buffers and using less AWE memory for buffers. However, since accessing AWE buffers is somewhat slower than accessing virtual address space buffers, Oracle recommends that you tune these parameters to be as large as possible without adversely limiting database operations.
In general, the higher AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY is set, the fewer connections and memory allocations will be possible for Oracle Database. The lower AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY is set, the lower the performance.
8. Once this parameter is set, Oracle Database can be started and will function exactly the same as before except that more database buffers are available to the instance. In addition, disk I/O may be reduced because more Oracle Database data blocks can be cached in the System Global Area (SGA).
Note:
Registry parameter VLM_BUFFER_MEMORY, which enabled VLM configurations in earlier releases, is not supported in Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1) or later.
VLM Instance Tuning
VLM configurations improve database performance by caching more database buffers in memory. This reduces disk I/O compared to configurations without VLM. VLM support in Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1) or later has been re-written to integrate very closely with Windows. Compared to Oracle8i release 2 (8.1.6), VLM users should see better performance with the newer implementation.
Tuning for VLM is no different than tuning for configurations without VLM. It is an iterative task that begins by selecting appropriate DB_BLOCK_SIZE and DB_BLOCK_BUFFERS initialization parameters for the application being supported.
Note:
Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1) or later VLM configurations do not support multiple database block sizes.
AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY, a new registry parameter specific to VLM, tells Oracle Database how much of its address space to reserve for mapping in database buffers. It defaults to a value of 1 GB, which should be suitable for most installations. If DB_BLOCK_SIZE is large, however, the default AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY value of 1 GB may not be sufficient to start the database.
Increasing the value of AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY will improve performance, but it will also limit the amount of memory available for other Oracle Database threads (like foreground threads). Clients may see "out of memory" errors if this value is set too large. As a general guideline, increase the AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY registry value by 20 percent.
For example, if DB_BLOCK_SIZE is set to 8 KB, AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY is set to 1 GB, and the number of LRU latches is set to 32 (16 processor computer), then database startup fails with out of memory errors 27102 and 34. Increasing the value of AWE_WINDOW_MEMORY to 1.2 GB fixes the problem.
Having a large cache in a VLM configuration may also slow down database writer (DBWR) threads. Having more DBWR threads will distribute work required to identify and write buffers to disk and will distribute I/O loads among threads. Initialization parameter DB_WRITER_PROCESSES enables you to configure multiple database writer threads.
A large cache can also introduce contention on the LRU (least recently used) latch. On symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) systems, Oracle Database sets the number of LRU latches to a value equal to one half the number of processors on the system. You can reduce contention on such configurations by increasing the number of LRU latches to twice (or four times) the number of processors on the system.

Windows 4 GB RAM Tuning (4GT)
The following Windows operating systems include a feature called 4 GB RAM Tuning (4GT):
· Windows Server 2003
· Windows 2000 Advanced Server
· Windows 2000 Datacenter Server
This feature allows memory-intensive applications running on Oracle Database Enterprise Edition to access up to 3 GB of memory, as opposed to the standard 2 GB in previous operating system versions. 4GT provides a tremendous benefit: 50 percent more memory is available for database use, increasing SGA sizes or connection counts.
Large User Populations
Several features allow Oracle Database to support an increasingly large number of database connections on Windows:
· Oracle Database Shared Server Process, which limits the number of threads needed in the Oracle Database process, supports over 10,000 simultaneous connections to a single database instance.
· Oracle Net multiplexing and connection pooling features allow a large configuration to connect more users to a single database instance.
· Oracle Real Application Clusters raises connection counts dramatically by allowing multiple server computers to access the same database files, increasing the number of user connections by tens of thousands, as well as increasing throughput.

Using too much memory while capturing

I am capturing from my Panasonic deck direct to the G4 via firewire DVNTSC but after only 10 minutes or so FCP quits and it is indicated that I have used up all my 200+GB space.
I think I'm doing something wrong with my settings somewhere because I should not be using this much memory.
Any suggestions?

Do this: log a 12 minute clip then do a BATCH CAPTURE of it.
This gets around the time limit issue of Capture Now. If this still does not work, the symptoms you describe do sound a lot like what people have reported after updating to QT 7.3 with resulting problems with capturing.
If this is the problem, the only sure solution is to erase the system drive and install OSX and your pro apps from the original disks and bring them up to date using the software updater.
If you go this route, either clone your existing system disk or make sure you back up any data on it before you erase the disk. This process will destroy all info on the disk.
good luck.

Backupd process using too much memory, blocking up system (Yosemite)

Hello,
Since I upgraded to Yosemite (maybe even only after I installed 10.10.1) on my Early 2009 17" MacBook Pro, after a while, a process called "backupd" is started, using all available memory, then switching to virtual memory. After a few hours, it can take more than 20 GB of virtual memory, making the MacBook Pro very slow and unresponsive. Killing the process using Activity Monitor (which can take many minutes because of the unresponsiveness) regains the used memory, and almost immediately makes the machine responsive again.
What is this "backupd" doing anyway, are there means to prevent it from running at all or to let it stop using so much memory, or might there be a bug in OS X 10.10.1?
Cheers,
Dirk

I did that anyway yesterday, to turn off the mobile backups, as my MBP is not so mobile anymore
Let's see if it works and if the problem is solved by it

AVG says using too much memory because multiple firefox's are open but I only see one.

AVG scans regularly in background. Lately it has been showing a popup window that says multiple applications of Firefox are running and using too much memory so I should close some. But, I only can see 1. Tried CTRL ALT DEL to see if I could find answer, but only showed 1 firefox, and it was using over 28,000. So I think AVG is correct, but can't find out how to see what or where they are. They DO NOT show on the lower menu of the main screen, so I assume they are in the background. Don't have viruses, and Firefox regularly updates itself. What should I do to fix?

Hi cmich80220-
It's true you should only be able to run one instance of Firefox at a time. I searched but was unable to find anyone else with a similar issue. If the problem gets back to Firefox running slowly, you might check out this article for troubleshooting:

I want to ask something about firefox.
why firefox use very much memory?
can you develop to reduce memory comsume?
this problem is very distrub in my PC with low memory.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

How much memory is Firefox using right now?
# Press '''CTRL+SHIFT+ESC''' to load the Task Manager window
# Click the Processes tab at the top. (Click once near the top of the window if you don't see tab
# Find firefox.exe, and see how many kilobytes of memory it's using.
Showing around 80MB when Firefox first starts is normal. Right now, I have 75 tabs open and it's using 500MB - this varies a lot depending on what you have in the tabs.
Other than high memory usage, what other problems are you experiencing? (Examples include slowness, high CPU usage, and failure to load certain sites)
Many of these issues, including high memory usage, can be caused by misbehaving add-ons. To see if this is the case, try the steps at [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]. Outdated plugins are another cause of this issue - you can check for this at http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck

How do I determine what is using the most memory.

The hard disk memory is filling up and I was wondering what is the best way to determine what is using the most memory. Is there a way to show a graph of how the memory is used. Like on my ipod. When I am checking the memory, it will show how much is music, and how much is applications and so on.
Also, I seemed to have lost the "all movies" in the list to the left when the hard disk is opened. It still shows the all imagess, and all documents but the all movies is gone.
Thank you for any help
