OLAP server uses a lot of memory

Hello Experts,
                                                                                We are having a BPC Microsoft multi server environment.                                                                               
The application server and database server are 2 seperated servers.                                                                               
The version for BPC is SP7 and for SQL Server 2008 SP1 cumulative update 6                                                                               
Each time we are running reports or performing actions on BPC, we see onthe database server in the task manager that the MSMDSRV.EXE
applicationstarts to increase in memory use. It starts with 1,5GB of memory use andit ends 10 minutes later (when the report is don
e running) with almost                                                                               
4GB. For some heavy reports, the memory use grows till 12-13GB.                                                                               
Is this normal? There is 32GB in this server, would the server crash if                                                            
there was less then 32GB? Because due to this memory use of the OLAP                                                               
server, the server uses up to 28GB of RAM.                                                                               
Is it usefull to use a fixed memory allocation for the Analysis Server?                                                            
And how can we calculate how much we have to allocate?                                                                               
Do we have to modify the MSMDSRV.INI file? And isn't this Analysis Server                                                          
using a cache, because it seems that when the report is done running, all                                                          
the memory used by the OLAP server is free again.                                                                               
Are there any parameters we can change to increase the performance of the                                                          
Analysis Server?                                                                               
Thanks in advance,
Arjun.

Hi ,
You have to place this question into other Forum SAP BPC version for SAP Microsoft.
You have to check if you have at least CU 6 for your SQL Server 2008 SP1 and also you have to make sure you have right parameters for OLAP
Memory Heap type = 2
HeapTypeForObjects = 0
PreAllocate=25 (this paramters is just into msmsdsrv.ini)

    It usually takes about 24 hours to get there. It is easily reproducible. "Kill -3" is not leaving a javacore for some reason.
    The applications are mostly jsp, and are all over the board. There is a lot of XML parsing, some db connections, and all sorts of other home grown things. However, if the jsp applications were leaking would that not be in the heap?
    How would I hunt down these allocations?

  • Safari 2.0.4 - Uses a lot of memory  ??

    Hello,
    I own an Intel iMac MA200.
    I noticed after Safari's 2.0.4 update that it uses a lot of memory, sometimes even as much as 200MB
    The cure I found is to restart Safari.
    Sometimes, I need to even Force Quit it.
    When I finish using my iMac, and close the Safari windows but let it keep running (red button), go to sleep, and in the morning check how much memory it takes, it's more then 100MB,
    I suspect there is a memory leak with Safari 2.0.4
    My OS X version is 10.4.8.
    I wonder if there is a known problem with Safari, and if there will be a new update released soon (2.0.5 ?) that will solve this problem, because I didn't have this problem with 2.0.3 .
    Thanks in advance,
    Idan Mashaal.

    Hey !
    Thanks for the post!
    Sience the Gmail upgrade, Safari stopped being my default browser.
    I'm using JCraig's optimized nightly builds for Camino (1.2+)
    They seem very memory friendly and Intel Optimized.
    http://homepage.mac.com/WebObjects/FileSharing.woa/wa/default?user=joelcraig23&t emplatefn=FileSharing2.html&xmlfn=TKDocument.2.xml&sitefn=RootSite.xml&aff=consu mer&cty=US〈=en
    I really hope Apple will fix the memory leak and Gmail fix there new interface (the little option button next to the new reply deosn't work - even with WebKit nightly) ASAP - sience SafariBlock and Saft doesn't work well with WebKit Nightly.
    I miss my Safari
    Idan.

  • When I regist function to lua,use a lot of memory

    when I regist c++ class and function to lua,the class or funtion may use templete.It use a lot of memory.
    Just registed about 1000 functions,The memory of running swf is about 1.8G.
    Then the swf exit without any exceptions.The same code run at win7,just need 100M.
    Can any give any suggestion?
    Thanks.

    I'm not sure what you mean by registering classes and functions. Have you tried running Adobe Scout on the SWF, it might give more info about what is taking up so much memory: http://gaming.adobe.com/technologies/scout/

  • Flash player 11.3.300.262 is using a lot of memory

    Since updating flash a few days ago the plugin has been using a lot more memory than usual. Normally it uses between 150MB to 200MB, but now i have seen it use up to 900MB.
    I've noticed that memory use increases by 5MB or more when navigating through a video until i have to terminate the plugin because of the ridiculous amount of memory used.

    Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
    Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
    If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
    To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.

  • My saved messages are using a lot of memory.  How do I free up the memory?

    My saved imessages are using a lot of memory (3.1GB) on my iphone.  How can I free up the memory?

    This is when I go to "usage" and it lists all of the memory used by certain apps.  Messages is the largest, and I swipe to the left to open it and it says that "saved messages" are using all of it.  There is no option to do anything at this screen.

  • My ituneshelper.exe is using a lot of memory.

    My ituneshelper.exe is using a lot of memory. I-tunes is not running and my I-pod is not attached.
    Is there anything I can do about this? Can I stop this from loading at start-up and only load when I open I-tunes?
    If so .. how???

    The best thing to do is uninstall iTunes and install turn to him, but another look from thedownload page do not you reinstall the exe you have already installed ahy maybe youriTunes installer is in bug

  • ScanToPCActivationApp.exe is using a lot of memory even though the printer is off.

    ScanToPCActivationApp.exe is using a lot of memory even though the printer is off. 
    Upon computer boot up, Task Manager shows it is using 45mb, and after researching this topic using IE, 10 minutes later it now shows it is using 74 mg, although it did go down to 33 mg a few minutes later, then back up to 51 mg a few minutes after that. 
    Is there a way to keep it from using so much memory when the printer is turned off?. 
    I am running Windows 7 on a Samsung Series 7 laptop and my printer is an HP 8600 All-in-one.  I do use ePrintCenter occasionally, and also have a MacBook Pro (running Mountain Lion), and iPhone 4 (running the latest IOSupdate) and all devices connect to the printer wirelessly. 
    Please let me know if there is more info that you require.  Thank you in advance!

  • SystemUIServer is using a lot of memory

    My systemUIServer is using a lot of memory like 300MBof memory. I can quit the serives which is relaucnched since it's a launchd and will gradually go back to eating up memory. I also have noticed the LoginWindow process eats up a lot of memory. Does anyone know what could be causing this

    systemUIServe and loginwindows is using 800+1gb of my ram. I m rearching for a fix  did you solve yours?

  • Kernel_task is using a lot of memory

    I am curious if it is normal to have Kernel_task take 1.8 GB of memory? It seems to be the consistent reason as to why our server is running slow? Thanks for any help....

    This looks like the solution, but I cannot get the commands to work. When I enter the command to make a command of /et/rc.server using the root login, it says:
    -sh: $: command not found
    How should I enter this command using terminal? thanks, I am really new at this, but I am doing my best to learn. As an aside, is there a site that helps getting started with terminal?
    As always, thanks!!
    You can make the following change to /etc/rc.server to improve performance in this situation. This is recommended only if your server has 2 GB, 3 GB, or 4 GB of RAM.
    Make a copy of /etc/rc.server with this command:
    $ sudo cp /etc/rc.server /etc/rc.server.bak
    As the root user, open /etc/rc.server in the text editor of your choice.
    Locate this line in /etc/rc.server:
    sysctl -w kern.maxnbuf=90000
    Change the number 90000 to 20000, so that the line reads:
    sysctl -w kern.maxnbuf=20000
    Save the changes made to /etc/rc.server.
    Restart the server.

  • Why is firefox 7b using a lot more memory and cpu on my computer?

    I'm trying firefox 7 beta in a debian squeeze box. It is using a lot of RAM and CPU compared to previous releases of firefox(I've tried disabling all plugins and add-ons, not a big improvement). In the follow link here is a summary from about:memory, websites tabs opened at that time and the usage of % mem and cpu of my system: http://pastebin.com/8ji1gmLk
    I'm using firefox on all my computers for a while now. So changing the browser is not an option for me now.
    It did crash few times when loading a lot of tabs. Please let me know if there is another information that would be useful for fixing this. Thanks

    Is it using a significant amount more resources than 6.0 did?
    I noticed 6.0 is a VAST resource hog over 5.0 and earlier. It's a very bad flaw in the new version, and has a lot of people upset.
    What has me curious is whether this is a new resource problem or whether it was present in 6.0 and you are just not noticing it.
    One suggestion: Don't run BETA versions of ANY software on "all your machines". Not when rolling back the version is not an option. That's generally a bad idea, since beta versions are likely to have bugs.
    With FF, now, I would never let it automatically update. I don't trust their new update policies, so I would suggest you turn "auto updates" to OFF, and do it manually, only after you hear the new release is stable, which we know 6.0 is NOT.

  • A process named "update.exe *32" and description is "Firefox" keeps using a lot of memory and cpu; the longer forefox is on, the worse it gets. How to prevent?

    using Windows 7, firefox 15.0.1
    This process uses more and more memory and CPU, sometimes there are several of these processes running. If I kill these processes, it doesn't seem to affect the utilization of Firefox. Then the process slowly starts to use more and more memory and CPU all over again.
    This happens all the time, every time I use Firefox.

    I do not have a ComObjects folder under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files. That is not part of Firefox.
    wscript.exe is a utility included with Windows to run scripts at the system level. It generally is not used by major programs. If update.exe is starting up with Windows, you may be able to find the script that wscript.exe is running using [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx Autoruns].
    It definitely sounds viral. I suggest deleting the update.exe file, although Windows might prevent you from doing that until you kill all related processes. And if you have a persistent infection, the file may be restored or re-downloaded.
    It might be easiest to seek assistance from a forum more dedicated to malware cleanups such as the following:

    CiscoWorks LMS was upgraded from version 2.6 to 3.2
    The Server previously ran at 3.5GB of Memory, but following the upgrade now runs at over 5GB of Memory.
    The Server is a HP Proliant DL380 G4.
    The Server has very poor response times following the upgrade, and we need to understand why this has occurred.
    I guess I  need to know if there are some services that you generally disable to improve performance or do we need to upgrade the hardware.
    Device has 4G of physical memory with 4G swap size.
    Any advice appreciated
    Cheers, Dom

    LMS 3.2 does take more memory that 2.6.  There are more daemon processes which run (e.g. there are now two instances of the DFM servers to support scalability to 5,000 devices).  As for how much RAM will be required, that will depend on the number of devices being managed and the other processes running on the server.  With 4 GB of RAM, you should be able to manage up to 1.5K devices provided HUM is not installed, and the server is dedicated to LMS alone.

  • Why is Firefox 6 using a LOT of memory on Vista x64

    Memory usage on FF6 is 40% higher than FF5. Also, I have a lag when changing pages on a website. This is extremely irritating and did not happen with the previous version.
