LIBTUX_CAT:541 + Memory Leaks
Hi
Tuxedo 11g (11.1.1.2.0) / Windows 2008 R2
We have a number of third party supplied tuxedo servers which when the BBL kills and restarts them the following is noted in the ULOG.
BBL.1168.8884.0: LIBTUX_CAT:541: WARN: Server ThirdParty_Grp/630 terminated
I understand that this warning is given when the code exited a process without calling any Tuxedo exit routines.
The memory on these same tuxedo servers grow quite large throughout the day and I was wondering if the poor practice of not calling Tuxedo exit routines are the root cause of the memory leaks.
If so, what evidence/proof/test is there that we can use to ask the third party to correct the code?
Thanks

Hi,
you can definitely search for one specific ATMI call, see
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18050_01/tuxedo/docs11gr1/rf5/rf5.html#wp1529614
for details regarding TMTRACE where there's an example of logging all calls to tpacall().
As I'm not The Universal Master Of All RegExps I don't really know whether you can catch several different calls in the search expression.
On another note, I'd try looking into the processing time of your services. I'd say it's more probable that you have a performance problem in general rather than a major bug in the services (if they never call tpreturn() not much work will be done at all...).
What is the value for SVCTIMEOUT (that is trespassed every now and then)?
If you can add a "-r" in CLOPT you'll get statistics from all services executed in that particular server written to the stderr file (that might be specified with the -e option).
Using txrpt you can then get insight into the execution times for the services in question. If they are constantly near the SVCTIMEOUT you may need to adjust the SVCTIMEOUT. If they are varying very much you may need to check for locks in the database or other reasons for "spiky" behaviour.
See
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18050_01/tuxedo/docs11gr1/rf5/rf5.html#wp1003290
for more info on what can be done in CLOPT in the ubbconfig (look for -r and -e options), and also
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18050_01/tuxedo/docs11gr1/rfcm/rfcmd.html#wp1002357
for more info on how to interpret the statistics that -r creates.
It is fairly common to create own-written utilities for interpreting the stderr file, it's not really rocket science if you want to get for instance min and max values out of it, which, by the way, would make a nice enhancement to txrpt in the first place. Product Management: are you listening? :-)
Hope this helps,

Memory leak within FOProcessor class
Hi all,
I'm trying to use the XML Publisher API (5.6.2 and 5.6.3) to generate PDF documents from XSL templates and XML data in a J2EE environment (Jboss 4.0.5) with Struts but a memory leak occurs.
It seems not to be a multithreading issue because the leak is there even if the PDF documents are generated one by one.
I made many tests to isolate the leak and I have simplified my code as much as possible: it seems to happen within the FOProcessor class.
One of the tests generates 4,500 PDF documents (one at a time) from an XML file (3 KB) and an XSL file (74 KB with blanks). Nothing else is done with the Jboss server during this test. The XSL file was created before the test from a RTF file with XML Publisher. The memory leak is around 70 KB for each PDF document (around 300 MB for the whole test).
As you can see below from the heap histogram (taken at end of test after a full garbage collection) it seems that the XSL and XML elements/attributes are not released (and thus never garbage collected).
Did I miss something or is there an actual problem with the XML/XSL parsing within the XML Publisher API?
Thanks for your help.Object Histogram:

Memory Leak with JDialog in Java 1.4.2_07
Hello!
All books I have read say to close a JDialog, it is enough to call the Method "dispose". Now I have written my first applikation an with every Dialog I open, the Software needs more RAM. With every Dialog I open, my software needs 1,5 MB RAM.
I can`t reuse the Dialogs, because the user needs to look at view at the same time
The Question is, how to close a JDialog correct that the GC can clean all Objects in RAM.
Here are my Example Programm where you can view the differences. I tryed a view things out. With every Dialog the software needs xxx kb of RAM (its only a little example).
Look at the Task Manager to look the real RAM needage.
Thanks for Help

use 30 MB in RAM the Runtime classes say 12 MB used. I don`t think
that this works hereThe 12 MB is the memory used of the available 30 MB memory available. Once the VM get its memory from the OS, it does not have to return the memory back to the OS right away.
By calling System.gc() does nt guarentee the garbage collector to be activated right away. you are just asking the garbage collector to run when it get a chance. Since the emeory is not near the max memory available...the gc is likely not going to run. Futhermore, if your application is running..the gc is likely wont run, unless memory is needed when you reach the max limit.
because the user want to view at more than one Dialog at the same
timeunderstandable..i just hope the 50 dialogs is just for testing the memory. i can't imagine any user would want to open 50 dialog at the same time =)
And the other is, that the Variables in the Dialog class wouldn`t clean
in RAM (that was the reason to set all to null!)why would it not be? When you dispose the dialog, the object will be null out..so when the garbage collector kick in, it will reclaim the memory. Now, if you have references to object in the dialog, that reference will be null out as well..the object may still exist (by having another live object having a reference to it)...the garbage collector would reclaim the dialog memory..but not the "live" object that the dialog has reference to.
I ran the application..testing both button.
The top button..there were little memory consumption..the second button consume a little memory bit-by-bit. I see no memory leak here. What happens is you called GC() 50 times..but it will only run one time when it get a chance...by nulling out the variables, and calling finalize()..it actually slow down the garbage collecting...that's why you should not even obther with having those two method. Furthermore, finalize method may not even be called.
Memory leak occurs when you have a reference from an object still hanging around, but that object is no longer needed. This is a design issue.
example
public class A{
Item item = new Item();
public void getItem(){ return item; };
public class B{
Item item;
public B(A a){
item = a.getItem();
A a = new A();
B b = new B(a);
a = null;when a is null out..the item reference is null, but the actual object still exist and 'b' has a reference to it. so by nulling out those object does not mean you just got rid of the object. it's better to let the object scope run out..and the garbage collector to collect it.. When you null out the object, you could accidentally null out an object that some other object may be using. -
How to determine memory leaks?
I tried in XCODE, the RUN/ Start with Performance TOol / and tried out the various options. I was running my app and looking to see if it would report increasing memory use but it seemed to be looking at my total system (i was running under the simulator). In general what is the recommended procedure for determining memory leaks, which tool to use, and what tracing can i use?
How does one look at the retain count of an object? are there system routines that have knonw leaks?You took the right path. Once instruments comes up select the Leaks tool. Turn off automatic leak detection. In your app, start off at some known state, do something, and come back to the known state and check for leaks. For instance start off in a view, do something that brings up another view then come back to the original view and check for leaks. Leaks will show you if you leaked. Since you took a very deterministic path then checked it should be straight forward to go to the code and find / fix the leaks. Leaks shows you where the code where the leak was generated.

Memory leak in JSpinner implementation (maybe others?)
Hi,
I am developing an application using Java and Swing, and have run into some problems with memory leaks. After examining the source code and making an example program (provided below), I can only come to the conclusion that there is a bug in the implementation of JSpinner in Sun Java 1.6.0_03.
If one uses a custom model with the JSpinner, it attaches itself as a listener to the model. However, it never removes the listening connection, even if the model is changed. This causes the JSpinner to be kept in memory as long as the model exists, even if all other references to the component have been removed.
An example program is available at http://eddie.dy.fi/~sampo/ModelTest.java . It is a simple swing program that has the JSpinner and two buttons, the first of which writes to stdout the listeners of the original model and the second changes the spinner model to a newly-created model. A sample output is below:
Running on 1.6.0_03 from Sun Microsystems Inc.
Listeners before connecting to JSpinner:
Model value is 0, 0 listeners connected:
Listeners after connecting to JSpinner:
Model value is 0, 2 listeners connected:
1: interface javax.swing.event.ChangeListener
2: javax.swing.JSpinner$ModelListener@9971ad
Listeners now:
Model value is 8, 2 listeners connected:
1: interface javax.swing.event.ChangeListener
2: javax.swing.JSpinner$ModelListener@9971ad
Changing spinner model.
Listeners now:
Model value is 8, 2 listeners connected:
1: interface javax.swing.event.ChangeListener
2: javax.swing.JSpinner$ModelListener@9971adThis shows that even though the model of the JSpinner has been changed, it still listens to the original model. I haven't looked at other components whether they retain connections to the old models as well.
In my case, I have an adaptor-model which provides a SpinnerModel interface to the actual data. The adaptor is implemented so that it listens to the underlying model only when it itself is being listened to. If the JComponents using the model were to remove the listening connections, it, too, would be automatically garbage-collected. However, since JSpinner does not remove the connections, the adaptor also continues to listen to the underlying model, and neither can be garbage-collected.
All in all, the listener-connections seem to be a very easy place to make memory leaks in Java and especially in Swing. However, as I see it, it would be a simple matter to make everything work automatically with one simple rule: Listen to the models only when necessary.
If a component is hidden (or alternatively has no contact to a parent JFrame or equivalent), it does not need to listen to the model and should remove the connections. When the component is again set visible (or connected to a frame) it can re-add the connections and re-read the current model values just as it does when initializing the component. Similarly, any adaptor-models should listen to the underlying model only when it itself is being listened to.
If the components were implemented in this way, one could simply remove a component from the frame and throw it away, and automatically any listener-connections will be removed and it can be garbage-collected. Similarly any adaptor-models are collected when they are no longer in use.
Changing the API implementation in this way would not require any changes to applications, as the only thing that changes are the listener-connections. Currently used separate connection-removing methods should still work, though they would be unnecessary any more. The API would look exactly the same from the view of an application programmer, only that she would not need to care about remnant listening connections. (As far as I can tell, the current API specification would allow the API to be implemented as described above, but it should of course require it to be implemented in such a way.)
Am I missing something, or is there some valid reason why the API is not implemented like this?
PS. I'm new to these forums, so if there is a better place to post these reports, please tell me. Thanks.Another cognition: It's the following code, that causes the memory to be accumulated:
obj = m_orb.resolve_initial_references("NameService");
ctx = NamingContextExtHelper.narrow(obj);For the first 4 calls to this code the memory usage of the nameservice is unchanged. From the 5th to the 8th call, it's increased by approx. 10KB per call. And thenceforward (beginning with the 9th call) it's increasing by approx. 10MB.
What's going wrong here? -
Memory Leaks Unresponsive Mouse
2009 8 core Mac Pro w/ 24 GB of RAM, ATI Radeon 4870, and a SeriTek PCIe eSATA card (card only has drives connected when running a manual drive clone). When running Toast 10 or Parallels 9, my RAM will fill up (I use a program called Menu Meters to monitor stuff). This machine worked just fine under OS 10.9 and earlier - no issues like this at all. ClamXAV will also completely fill the RAM up (the meter will be full green, instead of part green, then mostly grey when Toast or Parallels fills it up). I have to use Terminal to purge it so that the machine is usable.
The other thing that happens is that sometimes when the computer wakes up or I am in the middle of doing something, the mouse will still move, but the dock will not pop open and the left button the mouse doesn't respond. The right button will open the right click menu, but will not respond normally at all. I have tried a different Magic Mouse, but the problem is the same.
I thought that it may be a problem with the factory RAM and the Kingston RAM not playing nicely together. So I ran it with just the factory 8 GB and then ran it with the Kingston 16 GB - the problem persists no matter which RAM is installed. All of the RAM also passes the memory tests in Rember and TechTool.
So, I need to find out if someone thinks that maybe the bluetooth module may be going bad causing the mouse issues. I also need to find out what is causing the memory leaks. I followed the steps that someone gave on this site to boot into safe mode, repair permissions, reset PRAM, then reset SMC (or the other way around - I did it like they said to). It did nothing to fix the problem.
I need some guidance here. As I stated early on, the machine worked perfectly with OS 10.9. I have WAY too much software that I use, so doing a completely fresh install is out of the question - I don't have time to reload everything. This problem is annoying and I know that I am not the only one having these issues. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.Here is the EtreCheck report:
Problem description:
Memory leaks when using Toast 10 or Parallels 9. Mouse also become unresponsive (it will move, but left button does not work and dock will not pop open - mouse problem happens independent of the RAM being filled up - different mouse was tried with same result).

T61 with memory leak on XP for driver battc.sys
Hi
I have an issue with XP where the battc.sys module that is part of Windows XP and responsible for the kernel side of monitoring the battery status. This module continually leaks memory until I have no more kernel paged resources left and programs start to fail on my laptop.
I raised a support case for this with Microsoft and after some investigation and upgrading to the latest T61 power drivers that were released a few days ago on the Lenovo site, MS support told me it is a fault of the T61 and that I would need to disable Microsoft APCI support to stop this memory leak from occuring and to take the issue up with Lenovo.
I have used the verifier tool to confirm that it is the Windows XP SP3 battc.sys memory module leaking.
I am running the latest T61 drivers and fully patch with MS drivers on SP3.
As MS have told me it is the fault of the T61 I am posting this issue here.
Thanks
StephenIt is memory available to the kernelwhich itself does not show under a process in task manager as far as I am aware (unles it is taken account as part of the system process).
The best way to measure the available kernel memory space available is by using sysinternals procexp.
You need to download procexp and also install the windows debugging tools from Microsoft. Then in procexp set the "Options > Configure Symbols : Debughlp.dll path" to the new debughlp.dll installed with your debu tools and set the symbols path to srv*c:\Symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
Then you can choose in procexp "View > System Information" and see the used and total paged and non-paged kernel memory space.
poolmon helps monitor all the symbols that are taking up this memory and verifier lets you drill down to the exact module and the changes in memory for a module that is occuring.
Here are two really good links on it
http://blogs.msdn.com/ntdebugging/archive/2006/12/18/Understanding-Pool-Consumption-and-Event-ID_3A0...
http://blogs.msdn.com/ntdebugging/archive/2008/05/08/tracking-down-mmst-paged-pool-usage.aspx
In my poolmon i notice that Mmst and battc are taking alot of memory after my computer has been running for some time. Mmst being high is normal but battc should not continually be growing as it is which is why I raised the case to MS but they want verification it is not a Lenovo issue. -
How do I report a major memory leak problem with Firefox 3.6.10 in WinXP?
After I installed Firefox 3.6.9 on a WinXP desktop, I occasionally had minor memory leak problems, reflected by getting "out of virtual memory" messages. I upgraded to 3.6.10 when notified that it was available and that it supposedly fixed stability problems. Ever since then, whenever I use Firefox, it starts out quick as a flash, but very rapidly slows down to a crawl, and has twice brought my system to a halt. IE does not cause this, nor any other program I use, but the execution speed of all programs slows as badly as Firefox. If I knew where to get older versions, I would back up to 3.6.9 or earlier. The situation now prevents me from using Firefox much at all.
Im running windows 7, Firefox 3.6.10 and before i updated to 3.6.10 my CPU never went above 10% with Firefox open. Now it can spike well above 50% and i have nothing different from when i had 3.6.9 to now when i have 3.6.10.
There is no evidence for me to suggest one of the additions i have is causing it, its all pointing to Firefox itself and the last update. -
How can I address a memory leak problem with Firefox?
I have happily used Firefox for the past 7 years, and have rarely had difficulties. However, I am having some trouble now; Firefox (running 3.6.6) seems to have a memory leak on my machine. It's slower than what was discussed in other forum posts, but it still scales up slowly to multiple hundred MBs of Memory with very little CPU usage.
I have tried disabling add-ons and extensions, but this does not stop the problem. I have cleared my cache and other stored data, but that also does not help. Has anyone experienced a similar problem that might be able to help?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== within last two weeksHi reble0708,
I have Java console disabled on my Firefox browser.Everything is working fine for me. There maybe other problem on your browser which is making PDF document faded and blurry. Can you post the link where you found the problem viewing the PDF document?
Btw, you can go to ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ and select the previous version of Firefox from the given options. There's no need to uninstall Firefox before you downgrade to the previous version of it.But before new installation, backup your Firefox profile folder.
edit: replaced random unofficial download site link. -
Hello, For the last couple of months, I am having issues with one of my tabs or the program itself causing a memory leak. I was hoping that subsequent releases would fix the problem, but when I downloaded V.11 it did not help.
I use tab mix plus and at any time, usually have about 25 tabs open. Everything functioned okay for 8 or so months up until recently.
I am wondering if there is a way to try to track down what is causing the leak. If it is one of my open pages, i will get rid of it. I tried opening one page at a time from scratch, but could not find the issue. .
I always have flash block enabled to cut down on the website junk.
using OSX firefox v11.Now, I'm not going to say it's an Add-On problem because from the research I've been doing on this problem for the last half hour shows that everyone has DIFFERENT add-ons, but everyone's having the SAME problem....
So I went through my add-ons and disabled them one by one, and the single add-on that has been giving me grief is the latest WOT add-on. So, I have Firefox 11 (so does my wife) and we both have the WOT add-on. But that's where the similarity ends... I have Windows 7 x64, she has Windows XP x86.... but she doesn't have the memory leak problem.
What I see is a sawtooth pattern over time. Memory goes up a little over 30+ seconds, then drops down. But over half an hour, the peaks of the sawtooth are larger, and it doesn't drop back down to the same level again - always a little more than before. And before you know it, FF is peaking at 1.5+GB, dropping down to 1.2GB... and FF is running very, very slowly.... excessive disk accesses (paging probably, though I apparently I still have 1.5 to 2.0 GB of free RAM). Killing FF frees it all up, and if I open FF again, it's back to using 250MB of RAM.
So, it's not the add-ons per se, but how they're interacting with FF (or the other way round).... most likely, it's this plug-in container they created to stop add-ons from taking FF with them when they crashed. Seems to have created more problems than it has solved..... would be great if you could choose not to use it.... -
Allocated memory pool was not deleted! 1 GB memory leak is too much for me!
Dear Sirs. I found that DB environment, that was configured to use 1 GB cache size, won't free it when closed! Why? First I tried to open and close environment and got the following:
Detected memory leaks!
Dumping objects ->
{596} normal block at 0x01970040, 1048596 bytes long.
Data: < > 14 00 10 00 DB DB DB DB 0B 00 10 00 01 00 00 00
{578} normal block at 0x00397978, 464 bytes long.
Data: < > D0 01 00 00 DB DB DB DB C7 01 00 00 01 00 00 00
Object dump complete.
I have and idea that BDB will reuse the memory, rite? OK, let's try to create the same environment and open it. After environment was opened, closed, opened again and again closed, I got the following:
Detected memory leaks!
Dumping objects ->
{3663} normal block at 0x01B80040, 1048596 bytes long.

Data: < > D0 01 00 00 DB DB DB DB C7 01 00 00 01 00 00 00
Object dump complete.
So memory was not reused, nor deallocated.
By the way, you may be interested in other leak I found, but fixed, see
Replication manager memory leak when setting local site information.
This leak is more serious, I am not sure I will fix it quickly. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Could you please suggest something?
Thanks in advance!
With regards,
Vladislav.OK, the problem solved by fixing code in file 'log.c', method '__log_dbenv_refresh'.
Just added the code that deallocates memory of bulk buffer.
if (IS_ENV_REPLICATED(dbenv))
if (lp->bulk_buf != INVALID_ROFF)
__db_shalloc_free(&dblp->reginfo, lp->bulk_buf);
lp->bulk_buf = INVALID_ROFF;
lp->bulk_len = 0;
lp->bulk_off = 0;
It was allocated in the '__log_open' function, by the following code:
lp->ready_lsn = lp->lsn;
if (IS_ENV_REPLICATED(dbenv)) {
if ((ret = __db_shalloc(&dblp->reginfo, MEGABYTE, 0,
&bulk)) != 0)
goto err;
lp->bulk_buf = R_OFFSET(&dblp->reginfo, bulk);
lp->bulk_len = MEGABYTE;
lp->bulk_off = 0;
} else {
lp->bulk_buf = INVALID_ROFF;
lp->bulk_len = 0;
lp->bulk_off = 0;
Sorry for time taken to read my posts, I was really needy in quick help, but solved problems myself. -
Pro*c multithreaded application has memory leak
Hi there,
I posted this message a week ago in OCI section, nobody answer me.
I am really curious if my application has a bug or the pro*c has a bug.
Anyone can compile the sample code and test it easily.
I made multithreaded application which queries dynamic SQL, it works.
But the memory leaks when i query the SQL statement.
The more memory leaks, the more i query the SQL statement, even same SQL
statement.
I check it with top, shell command.
My machine is SUN E450, Solaris 8. Oracle 9.2.0.1
Compiler : gcc (GCC) 3.2.2
I changed source code which is from
$(ORACLE_HOME)/precomp/demo/proc/sample10.pc
the sample10 doesn't need to be multithreaded. But i think it has to work
correctly if i changed it to multithreaded application.
the make file and source code will be placed below.
I have to figure out the problem.
Please help

CHAR datatypes have length, but zero precision and

NUMBER datatypes have precision and scale only if
defined at CREATE time. If the column
definition was just NUMBER, the precision
and scale are zero, and you must allocate
the required maximum length.

9 to store the actual date character string.
If you use the TO_CHAR function, the maximum
length could be 75, but will probably be less
(you can see the effects of this in SQL*Plus).
ROWID datatype always returns a fixed length of 18 if
coerced to CHAR.

APEX 4.1.1 Memory Leak in IE7
Hi,
We busy upgrading our apex and db from 3.0/10G to 4.1.1/11.2G and notice that there appears to be a memory leak when using APEX. At one stage we have had IE7 using over a gig of memory.
When you load or refresh your page IE7 seems to grab on average 2-5MB of memory for each page load. At first we thought it may have been our apps or setup but this also happens when we go to app 4550 page 1 on apex.oracle.com.
How to replicate:
Open task manager to view the Memory Usage.
Using IE7
1. Go to http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=4550:1
2. Go back to Task Manager and note the readings once the CPU Usage for iexplore.exe has stablised to 0.
3. go back to IE7 and press F5
4. Repeat steps 2-3 and you will see the Memory usage increases.
We think this maybe due to a few jQuery UI memory leaks within IE7 and thought this bug ticket maybe of interest http://bugs.jqueryui.com/ticket/7666 (Slightly different versions but similiar experiences)
Could someone else confirm that they also experience the increasing or have had similiar problems and managed to resolve it?
TBH, it wouldn't be an issue to use another browser like Firefox to access the builder but this also affects the applications if they include APEX standard Javascript and CSS.
Thanking you in advance.

Don't have exact steps for replication or precise numbers, but I have noticed this in passing. On the junk that my client considers a PC suitable for web development the typical IE7 memory footprint with the APEX 3.0 builder and several other tabs running is about 52MB. Add APEX 4.1.1 and it climbs constantly until I have to pull the plug when it gets north of 150MB as the PC can't take it.
As well that I also have Firefox and 4.1.1 is still experimental at that site...
At the moment I don't have to resolve it and if I did the only option I'd propose is the replacement of IE7.

I saw that eariler this week. I do agree with the concept though.So take appropriate action: charge extra for IE7 support.
The amount of work and effort involved in making our website look normal on IE7 equalled the combined time of designing for Chrome, Safari and Firefox.Is entirely accurate. If it's stated as a requirement, itemise it as an extra on the quote.
Educate management and bean counters: show them the one line of standards-compliant CSS that's all that is necessary in Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Opera (and just possibly in IE8/9/10), how it isn't supported in IE7, and the tortuous hacks and workarounds that are required to get something equivalent working there. -
Firefox memory leak, how to fix?
I've noticed i've been having memory leaks since quite a few versions before the latest one (33.1.1) and the problem still continues, i notice this more when i leave firefox open for awhile, sometimes only with youtube and couple of other "static" pages on, but i've got the same results without youtube.
Today i decided to ask the question, since i haven't seen any memory leak bugfixes in the recent changelogs and it becomes quite a problem to me because i leave it all day open and when it happens it forces me to restart (not really forces but i don't like having an 1.3GB process when i can have the same for 500~ ...)
I don't believe any of my extras are the reason for it, i've tested them over the pass'ed versions, removed a few, installed a few, always same problem.
All of this running WIndows 7 Ultimate 64-bits .
i've researched and found it's a "common" problem, but no really solution or expected bugfix soon or anything, i'm still to test it without any 3rd part extensions or plugins, but i don't (think) have any extensions that may cause this because like i said, i've changed them quite a few times.
Here is my extension list: http://i.imgur.com/Rk80ajU.png
Here is my plugin list: http://i.imgur.com/GBA0qgY.png
And here is a "Measure" report from "about:memory" : http://privatepaste.com/bcd17c1093
I just want to know why it leaks so badly, almost the double RAM it would normally use.
Currently i'm like 3 tabs with 1.25 GB (Private Set) used, when i close a few tabs, it keeps stable or even rising by a few mb.
I hope there's something useful with that report/my extensions|plugins.
Thanks for the reading.I heard about that extension "problem" but, when i see on "about:addons-memory" from a third-party extension (that i can't remember but yo can see it in the link on OP, it only uses few megabytes (20~) , so, either it's a memory leak on the extension (if that's really the cause) a problem with my addon to view the extensions memory or a firefox one.
But i seriously don't expect that extension eats up all of this memory, but i will test it in a couple of days. -
DataSocket memory leak problem (2VO0SF00) -- more info?
When upgrading to LabVIEW 8.5 recently, I noticed the following known issue in the readme file:
"ID: 2VO0SF00
DataSocket/OPC Leaks Memory using ActiveX VIs to perform open-write-close repeatedly
If you call the DataSocket Open, DataSocket Write, and DataSocket Close functions in succession repeatedly, LabVIEW leaks memory. Workaround — To correct this problem, call the DataSocket Open function once, use the DataSocket Write function to write multiple times, and then use the DataSocket Close function."
Looking back, I think this problem may have been present in previous LabVIEW releases as well, and might be giving rise to a problem that's been dogging me for quite some time (see my thread, "Error 66 with DataSockets", http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&thread.id=187206), in addition to general slow/glitchy behaviour when my VI's have been running continuously for a long time. But in order to determine whether or not this issue affects me, and how I should go about fixing it in the context of my own programs, I need a bit more information about the nature of the issue itself and the inner workings of the DataSocket VI's. Any help or insight the community can provide into this would be greatly appreciated!
Here are my questions:
It is my understanding from the "known issue" description above that the memory leak happens when you have a DS Open wired to a DS Write wired to a DS Close, all inside a loop (example 1), and that the suggested workaround would be to move the DS Open and DS Close functions out of the loop on opposite sides, wired to the DS Write which remains inside the loop (example 2). Is this correct?
Does this leak also happen when performing DS open-read-close's repeatedly (example 3)?
What happens when a DS Write (or DS Read) is called without a corresponding DS Open and DS Close (examples 4a and 4b)? Does it implicitly do a DS open before doing the write operation and a DS close afterwards? What I'm getting at is this: would having an isolated DS Write (or DS Read) inside a loop, not connected to any DS Open or DS Close functions at all, cause this same memory leak?
If one computer is running the DS server and a second computer is running the VI with the repeated open-write-close's, on which computer does the memory leak occur?
In my question #1 workaround (example 2), the DS Open and DS Close outside the loop are routed through a shift register and in to and out of the DS Write inside the loop. If the DS connection id goes into the DS Write "connection in" and then splits and goes around the DS Write and out to the DS Close, without coming out of the DS Write "connection out" (example 5), will the memory leak still be avoided? I.e. if the DS Write function doesn't have anything connected to its "connection out", will it try to do an implicit DS Close?
If the VI causing the memory leak is stopped, but LabVIEW stays running, will the leaked memory be reclaimed? What if the VI is closed? What if all of LabVIEW is closed?
FYI, in the examples above "x1a" is a statically-defined DataSocket on the DS server running on the computer Max, to which the computer running the example VI's has read/write access. My actual application has numerous VI's and hundreds of DataSocket items, many of which are written to / read from every 50-100 ms in the style of examples 4a and 4b.
Does anyone have any idea about this stuff?
Thanks in advance,
Patrick

examples_jpg1.zip 63 KB
examples_vi1.zip 40 KBHi Meghan,
Yes, some of the larger VIs in my application do write to / read from several hundred DataSockets, so it's not feasible to use shift registers for each one individually, and hence why I'm passing the references into an array, etc.
Your Alternate Solution 2 is more along the lines of something that would work for me. However, my actual code has a lot of nested loops, sequences and DataSocket items which are not all written to in the same frame, so this solution would still be difficult to implement: it would be cumbersome to unpack the entire 500-element reference id array and build a new one (maintaining the positions and values of the unaffected elements) every time I write to some small subset of the DataSockets.
I think I have a solution which solves the problem and is also scalable to the size of my application -- I've attached it as Example 7. Do you think this will avoid the memory leak? It's the same as your Alternate Solution 2, except that instead of building a new array out of the DS Write reference outs, each reference out replaces the appropriate element of the original array.
If I understand you correctly, in order to avoid implicit reference opens and closes, a DS Write needs to have both it's reference in and reference out wired to something. Thus, even though my Example 7 replaces an element of the array with an identical value, and therefore doesn't actually change the array (which would be a silly thing to do normally), the DS Writes have their reference outs wired to something, and eventually in a convoluted way to a DS Close, so it should avoid the memory leak.
Just out of curiosity (I don't think anything like this would apply to my application or any fixes I implement), when would the implicit reference close happen in the attached Example 8? The DS Write has its reference in and reference out both connected to temporally "adjacent" DS Writes via the shift register, so perhaps it wouldn't try to close the reference on each loop iteration? Or would it look into the future and see that there is no DS Close and decide to implicitly do that itself? Or maybe only the DS Write on the last loop iteration does this?
Thanks for bearing with me through this,
Patrick
