Memory usage/freeze/crash modifying multiple objects

I'm getting Labview hanging issues when I try to modify front panel objects while editing (not running). It seems to be a general problem but this is the current scenario. Many charts on my front panel (over thirty), so I multiple select, and RClick>Properties. Watching Labview in Task Manager, I watch the Memory usage climb from about 90MB to 600MB. And it takes a minute at least! I can then change properties (plot scale ranges), and after more pausing, the dialog closes. Soon after, I'll get a fatal error and LV crashes. Something wrong here; I thought maybe it's my computer, but how can it take 0.5GB to load 30 chart property sets? Core i5, LV2011, Win7.

Try clearing the charts, one at a time if necessary, first.
Charts have internal buffers. So LV may be trying to make backup copies so that you can undo if you change your mind. Charts are generally not a good way to manage large amounts of data. I use as a rule of thumb: Do not keeping more data in a chart than the number of pixels in its width.

I aggree that crashing could be due to the amount of data in the charts. Try clearing them and saving the cleared chart as the default before doing the multiple object selection.
I guess I live a more dangerous life-style that Lynn in that I'll allow more data points than pixels simply because LV is "SO DAMN GOOD" at rendering down the data and supporting zooming. "In the old days" it was a common technique to reduce the data sets presented to charts to avaoid killing the CPU. So Lynn's "rule of thumb" is consistent with history. modern CPU can handle the abuse much better now so I can get away with living close to the edge.

Cisco 5508 Memory Usage

What is the average memory usage for a Cisco 5508 with 500 APs (mostly 3502s) running 7.0.116.0 code? I am currently at 450 access points and have 80% memory usage should I be concerned?

Tom,
I just had a 5508 in production hit 89% memory usage and crash… I have opened a TAC case and I will update once more information is available. The controller rebooted and came right back online at 56% memory usage; I suggest rebooting it during downtime.

Memory usage of excel stays high after Macro is executed and excel crashes after trying to close it

Hi,
I'm trying to resolve an issue with an excel based tool. The macros retrieve data from an Oracle database and do calculations with the data. They also open and write into files in the same directory. The macros all run and finish the calculations. I can
continue to use and modify the sheet. I can also close the workbook, however excel memory usage I see in the windows Task manager stays elevated.If I close Excel it says: Excel stopped working and then it tries to recover information...
I assume something in the macro did not finish properly and memory was not released. I would like to check what is still open (connection, stream or any other object) when I close the workbook I would like to have a list of all still used memory. Is there
a possibility to do so.
Here the code I'm using, its reduced to functions which open something. Functions

Ai CS4 & CS5: Can't move objects, huge memory usage. Tips?

Okay guys this is my first post here, so bear with me.
I'm just wondering if anyone can give guidance or refer me somewhere I can find a solution. I both CS4 and CS5 of Ai installed on my mac. Everything works just great, until I attempt to move an object. Something simple as a single line with freeze my system if I attempt to move it from one location to another.
It is odd. I can scale/transform objects without any issue. Its just when I click an object to drag it to another location my system will freeze for about 5 seconds. The object won't move still. I opened up Activity Monitor and noticed my Memory usage sky rocketed as soon as I tried to move the object.
Is there configurations for memory allocation in Illustrator like there is in photshop?
(PS I have 3GB RAM and a 120GB HDD with 30GB free space, 2.0 Intel Core 2 processor, it's a 2007 Mac Mini)

How big is the file? and is it complex if so then you simply do not have the resources. Also you might have a font cache issue.
But I think the lack of resources.

Premiere crashes when exceeding ~1.2GB memory usage

This is extremely annoying. I have found Premiere to crash when it hits around 1.2GB to 1.5GB of memory usage on medialayer.dll or something. I was able to crash Premiere in just a matter of seconds after launching it and opening my project. I work quickly, so this happens frequently.
Q9450 Yorkfield Quadcore (12MB Cache), clocked at 3.2GHz
4GB of 1200 RAM
All my scratch disks are set to my second partition, which has around or at least 200GB of free space. My page file is set to about 4GB. My machine is defragmented daily by Diskeeper Pro 2008.
I am dealing with 26 video files and have frame thumbnails displaying in the timeline thing (it makes everything all the more easier for what I am specifically doing) and adds up to around a total of 9 to 10 hours of video and audio. I'm chopping out the intro, credits, and midtro from each video, which is basically what I am doing.
However, I am currently downloading the latest update (which is like 50.3MB) that might possibly fix this issue. At least I hope it does. :( This crash/memory leak is going to drive me insane if it cannot be fixed.
EDIT :: I have observed that every time I save, the memory usage goes up by 200KB to 500KB. For each frame thumbnail that Premiere loads, the memory usage goes up by a whopping 2MB+. This will and does quickly add up for the work I'm doing. Photoshop never unloads any of this memory!
EDIT2 :: By the way, the frame thumbnails are 88x65 sized thumbnails.
EDIT3 :: Even with the latest version and update, Premiere Pro CS3 still crashes for the same reason. I haven't seen the memory usage at 1GB though.
EDIT4 :: Latest updates help though, but does not fix the problem. When I minimize Premiere, usage is 17 MB. When I bring it back up, usage is 32MB. I can keep resetting the usage to 17/32MB simply by just minimizing Premiere and bringing it back up again (and the memory usage reset is about instant). So far I've reset it numerous times when reaching levels of around 600MB to 800MB of memory usage and haven't crashed in my current session due to the memory leak yet.
This seems to be only a temporary solution.
http://www.hlrse.net/Qwerty/premiere-memoryleak-workspace.gif
That is my current workspace. I literally keep task manager open with Premiere highlighted like that so that I can watch the memory usage levels (to know when to 'reset' the memory usage) as I work. Right now all I'm doing is zooming in and out, and splitting videos in two (or multiple pieces).

Q9450 Yorkfield (12MB Cache) @ 3.2GHz
2GB G.Skill PC2-6400 (400MHz) x2 (4GB total, running with 3.5GB due to 32-bit limitations)
NVIDIA FX5200 (temporary, waiting for ATI HD4850 to come back from RMA)
500GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.1 SATA-II w/ SATA-II enabled
I have my 500GB harddrive partitioned into two partitions: 40GB (C) and 425GB (D). C is for Windows XP (includes drivers, codecs, and things that relate heavily to the core of Windows; stuff that isn't important enough to backup). D is for everything else, which includes games, utilities/tools, media (images, video, music), developer material, etc.
On D, you would find the following logical layout of folders:
Developer, Games, Media, Network, Utilities, Mozilla Firefox, Temp.
Temp is so that I can (in an organized fashion) set the temporary locations and scratch disks for programs here. All scratch disks are set to D:\Temp\Premiere, and currently reports 121.9GB of free space. I can easily free up 114GB to 240GB of material on D though (which I plan to do sometime anyway).
What information do you want to know? Be specific, I'm not stupid and illiterate like most people.
EDIT :: I didn't mention this in my post, but I did take the precautions to search through the Troubleshooting database for Premiere, and I did read through the optimizations for Windows XP article (which I already had the same suggestions applied to my computer since the dawn of time -- so that wasn't really useful).
EDIT2 :: I checked the troubleshooting link and none of those really apply. (Do you even know what a memory leak is?)
=P

Having a problem with Excessive "modified" memory usage in Win7 x64, upwards of 3.6GB, any suggestions?

I have 6GB of ram, a fresh install of Windows 7 x64, and the screenshot shows what happens after leaving my PC on for a couple days. (3782+MB being used by modified memory ATM).
http://wow.deconstruct.me/images/ExcessiveMemory.jpg
Any ideas on this?
Edit:
Added this after first round of suggestions
http://wow.deconstruct.me/images/NotSoExcessiveMemory.jpg
This is uptime of around 2 hours.
The first image is of uptime of around 3-5 days.

Matthew,
The only reason why these pages are kept on the modified list indefinitely is because the system doesn't have any available pagefile space left. If you increase the size of the pagefile the system will write most of these pages to disk and then move them from the modified list to the standby list. Standby pages are considered part of "available memory", because they can be reused for some other purpose if necessary.
Whether this would "fix" the problem or not depends on what the actual problem is. If it's an unbound memory leak then increasing the size of the pagefile will simply allow the system to run longer before it eventually hits the maximum pagefile size limit, or runs out of disk space. On the other hand, if it's a case of some application allocating a lot of memory and not using it for a long time, then increasing the pagefile might be a perfectly valid solution.
Allowing the system to manage the size of the pagefile actually works well in most cases. Pagefile fragmentation (at the filesystem level) can only occur when the initially chosen size is not large enough and the system has to extend it at run time. For win7 we have telemetry data that shows that even for systems with 1 GB of RAM, less than 0.1% of all boot sessions end up having to extend the pagefile, and this number is even lower for larger amounts of RAM. If you think you are in that 0.1% and your pagefile might be getting fragmented, you can manually increase its minimum size such that the total system commit charge stays below 80% even if you run all your apps at once (80% is the threshold at which the pagefile is automatically extended). This will make sure the pagefile is created once and then stays at the same size forever, so it can't fragment. The maximum size can either be set to the same value as the minimum, or you can make it larger so that the system is more resilient to memory leaks or unexpectedly high loads.
By the way, Windows doesn't use pagefiles as "extra memory", it uses them as a backing store for private pages, just like regular files are used as a backing store for EXEs/DLLs and memory mapped files. So if the system really has more than enough RAM (like in your second screenshot, where you have 3.6 GB of free pages) you shouldn't see any reads from the pagefile. You can verify this by going to the Disk tab in the resource monitor and looking for any disk IO from pagefile.sys. On smaller systems that don't have an excess of free pages you may see periodic reads from the pagefile, and this is expected because the total amount of data referenced by the OS/drivers/processes is larger than the total RAM. Forcefully keeping all pagefile-backed pages in memory (which is what disabling the pagefile does) would simply mean some other pages (memory mapped files, DLL code or data etc) would have to be paged out.
Regarding further troubleshooting steps: If the system runs fine with a larger pagefile (commit charge stabilizes well below 80%, and you no longer see gigabytes of modified pages accumulating in memory) then you don't really need to do anything. If the problem persists, you can check for any processes with an abnormally high commit charge, and also check kernel memory usage in task manager. If it's a kernel leak you can usually narrow it down to a particular driver using poolmon.exe or kernel debugger.

Norton reports high memory usage with firefox and it crashes often

Norton antivirus 2011 has pop up warnings reporting high memory usage from Firefox. I have been getting theem often and my computer is crashing often after those pop up warnings. Thanks

Safe mode did not help.
I have disabled ALL extensions and plug-ins, but the problem with "zig-zag" memory usage still remains (I've not tried to leave browser open for the night yet).
I think I'll do clean reinstall with completely new empty profile (without sync'ed information) to try this out. If this works, I'll start adding stuff (configuration, sync, features, etc) to see what causes the problem.

Memory problems: computer freezes on heavy memory usage

Ever since I changed the internal hard drive of my MacBook Pro (I installed a Seagate Barracuda 1Tb disk), I have the following problem:
Whenever an application needs a lot of memory (for example Parallels installing a new Windows system, or Acrobat Pro optimizing a big PDF file), the computer progressively freezes. What I mean by freezing is that I can still move the mouse cursor, but clicking has no effect, and there is no interaction whatsoever with the GUI. Even the clock on the menu bar stops.
I never had the problem before. I guess that under normal conditions the Finder will always keep a few Mb of RAM for its own use. After all I have 4Gb of RAM installed.
Is there some way I can prevent the computer from freezing? Has this something to do with VM? Ever since I changed the hard disk, this problem happens once or twice every day, and the only solution is to force a restart, losing all my work…
Thanks in advance for any advice…

First, do not assign more than half your available RAM to a VM. It's best to let the VM software's configuration to select the amount used by its defaults.
Second, watch how many concurrent applications you attempt to use. Monitor your memory usage in Activity Monitor. If the Available RAM (Inactive RAM plus Free RAM) is low and Free RAM is near zero, then you have too many concurrent applications running. This forces the system to start using the disk-based virtual memory file. With too many apps swapping into the vm file disk thrashing will occur that ultimately can lead to the computer appearing to freeze up or to actually freeze up.
Of course your alternative is to install more RAM if in fact you are over-taxing what you have now. You may find the following helpful reading:
About OS X Memory Management and Usage
Reading system memory usage in Activity Monitor
Memory Management in Mac OS X
Performance Guidelines- Memory Management in Mac OS X
A detailed look at memory usage in OS X
Understanding top output in the Terminal
The amount of available RAM for applications is the sum of Free RAM and Inactive RAM. This will change as applications are opened and closed or change from active to inactive status. The Swap figure represents an estimate of the total amount of swap space required for VM if used, but does not necessarily indicate the actual size of the existing swap file. If you are really in need of more RAM that would be indicated by how frequently the system uses VM. If you open the Terminal and run the top command at the prompt you will find information reported on Pageins () and Pageouts (). Pageouts () is the important figure. If the value in the parentheses is 0 (zero) then OS X is not making instantaneous use of VM which means you have adequate physical RAM for the system with the applications you have loaded. If the figure in parentheses is running positive and your hard drive is constantly being used (thrashing) then you need more physical RAM.

Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff!

Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up real fast and carries on going till it uses up all there is left. Most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff but not just neccessarily then! I find out it's happened when there's been an update after i restart and an extra webpage comes up with the particular addon/plugin/ff update. I have to restart most of time because nothing sorts it out. I'm using windows xp with the latest update of ff 13.0.1 it's not this version because it's been happening for a while. And it never started when i added a particular addon or plugin or when i added a new app to my pc either. Any idea as to what this may be or how i'd sort it out?
Cheers

Indesign CC freezes and maxes out memory usage in Windows 7

I'm having a problem where Indesign will freeze and when I check on it in Task Manager I can see the memory usage climbing until it's using all free memory. I have to kill the task to get it to stop. I have 8GB and it maxed out at 6.5gb this morning. I'm on Windows 7 Pro and am using the 64-bit version of Indesign with the most recent update.

The document I'm working on now is only about 35 pages with 1-3 images per page, nothing too crazy. I don't have any extra plugins from what I recall - how do I check?
I'm using Photoshop and sometimes Illustrator at the same time, but have plenty of free memory until ID goes nuts.

These crash reports can be hard to interpret, but at least the six from 9/16 seem to be "out of memory" (OOM) errors. Assuming that is the case, the question is what might be done about that.
This support article has a range of suggestions, including not having more than 100 tabs open and possibly useful add-ons. [[Firefox uses too much memory (RAM) - How to fix]]. In a bug report, I also saw an extension that displays the usage on the add-on bar, which might help in keeping an eye on it.
I noticed you have several dom.ipc.plugins.* preferences set to False, which may force some plugins to run in firefox.exe rather than plugin-container.exe. The design of the process isolation feature is that plugin crashes will take down plugin-container.exe rather than firefox.exe. It may also be that overriding process isolation is ballooning the memory usage by firefox.exe rather than more evenly distributing it between the two processes. You may want to restore those settings to their defaults and see whether that helps.
Finally, to reduce the size of your sessionrestore.js file you could omit personal data (e.g., cookies, form data), but this will make it a bit harder after a crash to get back to where you were.

Occasional video freeze, related to memory usage?

Hi all,
I've been experiencing problems playing divx and flv (firefox) videos.
The image freezes for a second, then keeps playing, then freezes... again and again.
I have the same problem with VLC, MPlayer OS X, I have tried uninstalling Perian, or Flip4mac...
Computer updates are ok.
It looks like a memory usage issue to me but I am not sure.
Any idea?

One thing you could try is to go to System Preferences>QuickTime>Streaming and set the bar for a longer delay. I get this a lot with dial up, and I think it's because the download speed is slow. It downloads a little, plays a little, downloads a bit more, plays a bit more...and so on. With really fast internet, I think it downloads faster than it plays, so you don't get this.
Good luck!

Is my memory bad? Screen Freezes - Crashes

Hello, I have a macbook early 2008 or so... I bought it with 2GB, last year I bought 2 2GB memories from MacRam to upgrade my macbook and i am having issues with the memory, I think. I think was able to isolate the one that gives me issues, and I am not an expert. I ran AHT and REMBER and in both the memory appears good.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? When i send the ram back to MacRam, they will test the memory and most likely the memory will be returned back because the memory will pass the test too.
Any ideas of what could case this freeze/crash? Would this be a result of static?
The following screen freezes are happening:
and

If you take out the MacRam memory, and put back in the original memory, do you still have the problem? That would help isolate cause and effect.
When you ran the AHT did you run the extended test?

Programmatically profile memory usage on multiple VIs

I need to programmatically profile the memory usage (daily) on a set of designated VIs and record the results for future comparison. How can I configure the profiler to start, then run a sub VI, and then stop the profiler? Also, how can I save the results into a spreadsheet?

Thanks for the reply Stephanie. What I need to do, however, is programmatically set up the Memory Profiler (Tools>>Profile>>Performance and Memory and then select the "Profile memory usage" checkbox and then select the "Memory usage" checkbox), start it, programmatically run my selection of sub VIs, and then stop the profiler, and then save the data to a specific location. All of this has to happen without input from a user. It will run automatically at pre-determined intervals.
Understanding how to programmatically set up and run the profiler is where I need help. I couldn't find any functions that dealt with the memory profiler.

RMBP freezing / crashing (not chrome related)

Hi, about 3 weeks ago my rMBP started to freeze randomly and i couldn't find anywhere on the internet nothing related to that, only the chrome / mountain lion conflicts, but... i'm not using google chrome, so why's that? This last freeze I got the log from the moments between the freeze, i'm hoping anyone here could help me with this by looking at the reports. thanks!

1. Saving PSD's / Smart Objects. Most of the time, whenever I try to save a PSD or smart object in PS, it prompts me with an error that says: Could not save "..." because the file already in use or was left open by another program.
This frequently occurs becasue it is being used someplace else. It could be Bridge that is trying to build the cache, or it could be Windows indexing files. Many turn Windows indexing off for this reason.
2. Freezing / Crashing. I have never experienced photoshop freezing or crashing as much as I have with this update. This happens during save (when it actually does save.) Though it only happens rarely, it happens enough to get me into some trouble when I loose all the work I have done since the last save. (Happened 4 times in about 16 hours of use)
Are you saving over a network? Best to save locally and copy to network.
Also, CS6 puts a lot of stain on GPU driver. For ATI the best driver is 12.8 and 13.3 v 6 beta (not sure if this is out of beta or not). The ones inbetween are not so good.
Note, if PS crashes it will save a copy on scratch disk if you have this option turned on in preferences.
If it actually crashes, as opposed to freezing, check out the Event Log and look for Faulting Module.
