Possible spotlight memory leak? CPU/python process taxes system 100%

Posted this on other thread previously with no replies...and have read others with same problem, yet nobody with any solutions....this process almost always kicks in every other day only when my system is in sleep/standby mode which makes me think of spotlight (yet didnt think ANY process should be running in sleep mode). Also when no applications are open. (Except Activity Monitor - Which I set to be a startup item to find my slowdown since this problem has been bugging me for so long now)
What it is, is "Python" process that is running taxes the system to 95-100% and wont stop until I force quit that process, then all is fine.
I'm not sure how to look at the logs etc like some of you mention in the previous posts, but feel free to let me know how and I'll surely try to help where I can.
I was wondering if upgrading to the new OS would fix the problem, or just compound it...perhaps have to do a clean install and wipe out all my files and aps to kill this one.. not sure how to find it...
I even thought, <gasp> some form of virus, yet have used various virus scan tools only to have clean results... so hopefully this is not the case... so what processes use python (if not many) and how can I pinpoint this? The system is almost locked down while the python process is running so real difficult to do anything except kill the process.
Help!

And what should I be looking for in this log or what should the terminal command offer me if I do that as well... both I should try to do when this is happening?
It's normally easiest to pick it out when you have Console open and observe when you try to reproduce the problem, but there are many Logs there for many things.
familiar with cleaning up xp registries and startup processes... can I find something similar for mac?
I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 5 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files!
Disconnect the USB cable from any UPS so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

  • Detecting a memory leak in a process running on Solaris 5.7

    Hi,
    Iam running my application on solaris 5.7 platform.
    I can see clear memory leak in that process.
    Is there any tool or in-built functionality on solaris 5.7 to detect/fix that leak.
    Thanks in advance,
    Avvaru

    Thanks for the reply. I already turned it off in both Safari and Spotlight preferences. However the problem persists. The process still runs, and from time to time it decides to leak all the memory as well. I really can't understand what the reason might be.
    To be clear, in Safari-->Preferences-->Search-->Smart search field-->"Include Spotlight Suggestions" is un-checked. In Spotlight preferences all three "Spotlight Suggestions", "Bookmarks & History" and "Bing Web Searches" are un-checked. Process still runs under Spotlight as can be seen here:
    After the last post I let it run for a while when it happened again, and below is just before i terminated it. Look at the memory usage!

  • Huge Memory Leak, CPU Usage

    We are noticing in several of our apps a very bad memory
    leak. See the below code. Its called every 100ms to process any
    messages as we use this like a queue system. Overnight, not a
    single message was sent...as the app was just sitting idle on my
    screen. My server log confirm this, not a single post was done.
    However, memory usage jumped 300MB, and by the end of today, my
    browser is going to crash when it runs out of memory.
    The memory leak seems to be directly related to the
    setTimeout function, as that is the only thing being called
    here...there was nothing put on the queue all night.
    Specifically, Iw as at roughly 50MB of memory usage yesterday
    afternoon. After a bunch of testing, the memory usage was up to
    175MB. Overnight we are now over 475MB. This is the internal memory
    used by Flash, and my Activity monitor confirms this.
    This issue happens on OS X, and Windows XP, Flash 9 and Flash
    10. In 3 different application we have that do this sort of queue
    setTimeout loop.
    Anyone else seeing this?
    How can I work around this?
    Thanks,
    Ben

    AFAIK, there are no inbuilt memory leak problems with using
    an enterFrame
    event handler. LiveCycle Data Services will push the
    information to you, so
    you don't have to constantly try to pull, so to speak..

    It's possible that it's not Flex, but you. Are you constantly
    adding event
    listeners without removing them? Are you removing objects
    from the stage
    without removing all references to them?

    I wouldn't be so quick to blame Flex. You have to make sure
    you clean up
    after yourself, or you can cause these types of issues with
    your code.

  • Possible of memory leak in the loop

    Recently my application do get OutOfMemory issue. I realized the memory is keep on stack up as i saw in the task manager, the jlaunch keep growing and it won't drop back. That day i'm running a search function and it will query the table to retrieve the data. The jlaunch shoot from 500MB -> 2.2GB and now remain in there. Wondering is it during it query it populate at least 10,000 records into the arraylist and then the memory already allocated and once i finish run the function, it will clear the allocated memory to re-use it.
    public ArrayList ejbHomeInJDBCConnection(Map map){
         ArrayList beanList = new ArrayList();
         try{
              Context ctx = new InitialContext();
              DataSource ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup("jdbc/POOL");
              Connection con = ds.getConnection();
              String query = "SELECT * FROM USER WHERE ";
              for (Iterator iterator = map.keySet().iterator(); iterator.hasNext();) {
                   Object key = iterator.next();
                   if(key.toString().startsWith("TIME") | key.toString().startsWith("TIMEIN")){
                        long longValue = Long.parseLong(map.get(key).toString());
                        query += key.toString()+ longValue + " AND ";      
                   }else{
                        String value = (String)map.get(key);
                        query += key.toString()+ value + " AND ";      
              String newquery = query.substring(0, query.length()-5);
              newquery += " ORDER BY TIMEIN DESC";
              Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
              try {
                   ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(newquery);
                  try {
                        while (rs.next()){
                             InBean bean = new InBean();
                             bean.setSmsId(rs.getString("EMP"));
                             beanList.add(bean);
                   }finally{
                        rs.close();
              }finally{
                   stmt.close();
         }catch(Exception e){
              System.err.println(e.fillInStackTrace());
    return beanList;
    Wondering is it the InBean will cause any memory leak as if there is 10,000 records, which mean it will create 10,000 objects and once it add into the arraylist the previous bean is not in use, will the GC clear it as i didn't set it as null. Do i need to do something like reallocate/defragment the memory?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I'm sure a "count" would not generate the overhead you are concerned.
    To understand some aspects, you need to read the source files of Java, and understand how the stack would work in your case.
    Evertime you "add" an element to you list, the implementation will run the ensureCapacity, and grown the list one by one. Understand that the list is an Array with a lot more functions, but below, you are still working with an Array, and it needs to have a defined size. Everytime you add, it's doing a System.arraycopy(all the crap) - So you can save this, everytime you add something if you create your List with the right size.
    Note, this is not an issue if we consider small lists, of small objects, but working with large lists, you can feel slow downs.
    About the GC stuff, well.. I'm sure you can do some reading how it works. One good start point would be
    Link: [http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/gc1.4.2/]
    I'm sure you don't need that, but still, it's good reading. Maybe you should just increase your heap size, or you can manually clear the List using list.clear();
    Rgds,
    Daniel

  • Memory leak in airport process on Core 2 Duo MBP?

    Hello!
    I'm having a problem with my MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo (15"). It was slowing down rather rapidly after boot, so I pulled up Activity Monitor and found that the process "airport" had consumed 1.3G of Real Memory and 2G of Virtual Memory, plus 100% of the % CPU. I killed the process and it goes back to normal (importantly, without any impact on the wireless networking).
    If I shut the screen and start it up again, it relaunches the airport process and it eats up the memory and processor all over again.
    Anyone have any ideas what might be wrong? I've already repaired the permissions.

  • Deluge memory leak? python memory leak?

    Recently, deluge on my lightweight box has been misbehaving.  When running, it (python2?) seems to spawn multiple instances even after halting it from the deluge-console or even from a shell via 'killall deluged'.  They just keep running rendering the system is incredible unresponsive when this happens.  I was able to kill them via 'kill -9 5084 5085 5087' but this isn't normal behavior for deluged.
    This box is headless Athlon w/ 512 meg of RAM running Arch i686 (up-to-date) I use for my weather station and for seeding. Looking back at the monitorix logs, it NEVER goes into swap space. Just recently when this has been happening as you can see from the htop screenshot
    Glad to post log files and provide more details (currently ~/.config/deluge/deluge.log is a 0-byte file?
    Deluge version: 1.3.0
    Python version: 2.6.5
    Kernel: 2.26.35.6
    Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me? Thanks!

  • Galaxy S6 Memory Leak - Multitasking

    I've begun to notice more and more that when multitasking, the phone's response time drags to the point of hardly usable, or the apps have to restart and multitasking is completely useless at that point. When this is happening and I check the App management portion in the settings, it shows the system is taking up anywhere from 1.5-2 GB of the RAM, apps are anywhere from 600-800 MB, and Free is whatever is leftover at that point. How is this even possible? I've seen reports of a memory leak issue within the operating system, and that's the only thing that seems to make sense when a phone with this much memory and processing power performs worse than a 2011 phone.  Are there any solutions that AT&T has to fix these? Otherwise this phone is almost useless to me

    if you have the 5.0.2 update installed that fixed the memory leak for my 920a
    If anything the most complaints I have seen is the ram managment is to aggresive on the s6 series.

  • [LPX] Drummer/Drum Kit Designer memory leak causing crash

    After working with LPX for a couple of days after release with almost no problems save for a few system overload errors that always seemed to sort themselves out, I loaded up a project I had been working on to find that it crashed every time I tried to play the track. Other, smaller projects, still played in varying degrees, some having to wait for a long time seemingly for samplers to load up etc.
    I did some testing (painstaking, considering that I was having to force-quit the application for my computer to even run again; as an aside there were never any error reports for whatever reason) and found that it appears to be Drummer/Drum Kit Designer that's causing massive memory usage. Looking at the activity monitor when loading the project revealed that the memory usage would just go up and up until it maxed out my (rather modest) 4GB RAM, at which point there would be no free memory and the computer would slow almost to a standstill. Removing all instances of Drum Kit Designer and Drummer reduces the load to a point where it is once again manageable.
    This seems like a fault in Drummer, I'm thinking possibly a memory leak. Has anyone else been experiencing this problem/anyone have any thoughts as to how it could be fixed?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jasper

    This is not a memory bug. It's simply the nature of the new Drummer.
    Drummer uses a LOT of samples. It's a 13GB download for a reason. You will need more than 4GB to use drummer and not run into issues.
    The nature of the modern Logic engine - which seems unchanged from v9 - makes it very bad at being able to tell when it's running out of memory. Logic will simply freeze or crash most of the time it runs out. The freeze would be down to it using literally every last MB on your RAM without overstepping the boundary, and the crash would be downt to it claiming to need more real RAM than you have spare.
    Producer kits use 5.1 surround samples, and submixes them to stereo in a way that posistions them around the space. Whilst a doddle for a modern machine, you Mac is rather long in the tooth to be trying to do that whilst struggling to handle 1.2GB patches with 4GB of RAM total.

  • Memory Leak with 4.5.1/Java/Solaris

    Hi,
    We are currently running a Java Application using RMI/Weblogic 4.5.1/Solaris 5.7/Java 1.22.
    Behavior that has been observered during the day is that memory usage reaches a stage in which it begins increasing and GC doesn't recover any memory, until the heap reaches an extremly large size, then recovers a significant amount of memory.
    We have even seen the java process grab more memory than specified in the -Xmx parameter and experience a java.lang.OutOfMemory error.
    I have seen postings that describe similar issues in this newsgroup, but none that define a solution.
    This problem is intermittent, and our application can run an entire day without experiencing this memory leak. On the other hand there are days when the memory leak occurrs even when the system is idle overnight.
    Please let me know any information you have gathered on this subject.
    Regards,
    Mark Evans

    try increasing your virtual memory on your NT system...

    Hi,
    I observed the same confusing stuff in my tests. But I run weblogic 4.5.1 on Windows NT with JDK 1.2.2-w
    Usually, I would get a "Low virtual memory" message from windows
    and if I click ok & shuffle thourgh my windows I would be ok.
    But since last 2 days, I would keep the server running overnight.
    When I return in morning,
    I would find a "Low virtual memory" message and
    on clicking OK. I would find another message tell me that java.exe (which was running weblogic) crashed!!
    Now today I tried to watch the memory usage in Task Manager. And I found the most wierd thing.
    I saw that even when the system was doing virtually nothing,
    except print a string at intervals, the memory usage would go
    up steadyly.
    Even doing a forced finalization and gc did not seem to stop it.
    BUT, BY CHANCE I HAPPEN TO MINIMISE AND MAXIMISE THE WEBLOGIC
    CONSOLE OUTPUT WINDOW.
    WHAT I SAW IN THE TASK MANAGER AMAZED ME!
    THE MEMORY USAGE IN TASK MANAGER HAD GONE DOWN TO 24XXKB, WHILE
    IT WAS ABOUT 20000K OR EVEN MORE.
    This seems to support the fact that during my test, I would
    get the "low virtual memory" message and if OKed it and shuffled
    though application windows (maybe minimise, maximise the weblogic
    console output window in process), I would be able to complete
    my application. But when the message appears during night runs,
    nothing is done and by morning, when I reach to work,
    I would see that weblogic had crashed!!
    You may try that and see if it helps you.

  • Memory Leak in cRIO running RT

    I am running 2009 RT on a compact RIO chassis.  My very basic VI causes the RIO to reboot which appears to be related to a memory leak.  I use the system monitor and can watch the memory usage on the RIO chassis grow very slowly.  Attached is the project and the target VI is pretty basic.  I even made the modification to close the refence that is opened during the data scan but still have this persistent problem.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    choff,
    There is a way to pass a cluster using a shared variable.  I do this all the time.  Turn the cluster in question into a type def'd custom control and save in your project.  When you create a the shared variable you can select the Data Type.  Last thing on list is 'From Custom Control.....' 
    P.S.  If that other post really fixed the memory leak then please mark it as the solution.  Somehow I don't think you'll be the last person to run into this problem. 

  • Mystery Python Process (eating memory & CPU)

    Hi -
    I have been using my 1.83GHz Intel iMac for a day or two. I migrated data from my iBook G4 and I have to say that it went very smoothly. But today the machine has seemed SUPER-slow, and my SysStat widget indicated consistent very high CPU load.
    When I did a top listing in terminal it was confirmed. I am reluctant to kill a process that is a mystery, but this sucker seems to be giant. It varied from 50-55% of CPU, and has left me with 6mb of free memory! I never saw this on my iBook.
    Any ideas what could cause a Python memory leak / looping process? How would I diagnose it? I just tried to kill it and it won't die. Please look at the top screen-cap here (PID 5079 is the one):
    http://www.lewismiller.info/upload/top.jpg
    Help!
    The process remains even after I shut everything down.

    Looks like it was an errant thread from Tomato. Restarting the machine fixed it, and the app now seems to be behaving better. Ta!

  • Process memory leak issue  solaris 10

    I have a process which has a memory leak issue. I ran this process on solaris 9 as well as solaris 10. When i run prstat command i get a different output for two. Funny thing is that memory leak noted in solaris 10 is much more than that in solaris 9 e.g if it is 1 MB in solaris 9 then its 4 MB in solaris 10.
    What can be possibly causing this ? Is this related to kernel implementation on diff solaris ?

  • Secd Process Memory Leak

    Finding the secd process using 13GB of RAM was a bit of a shock. Watching its RAM consumption continue to increase, indicates a memory leak. Is this something anyone else has noticed? And any possible solutions?

    Thanks - I think this helped, but will give it a day or two to see what happens.
    My secd was over 32 GB the other day and the iMac wasn't quite its usual self. After restarting, secd's memory usage dropped away, but has been steadily creeping up over the last couple of days and was over 5GB this morning. So I tried dragging the Keychains folder to the trash and restarting.
    The thing about dragging your keychain to the trash and restarting is, on logging back in you may be asked for a pile of passwords to all your mail accounts and your keychain will be empty!
    I filled out all the requests for icloud passwords, but for the keychain to update properly, this took a while. I think what saved me from panicking about losing all my passwords, was going into System Preferences and signing into iCloud there. I was also requested to verify my iCloud login from another device (e.g., iPAD). I think this is what restored my keychain from the cloud.
    Once the keychain had updated itself, I restarted the iMac again, and Mail returned to normal (no more requests for mail account passwords).
    The only thing that wasn't restored after restarting was automatic keychain access to my time machine. I had to enter the password and save it to the keychain.

  • Yosemite and Mail massive memory leak and excessive CPU usage

    I've just installed Yosemite and upgraded to 10.10.2 via the AppStore. Now I have a problem with Mail sucking up all the CPU (>106% !) and memory (>8Gb and rising while doing nothing). Everything runs fine when I quit Mail. Very disturbing behaviour!
    I've tried several suggestions found elsewhere on the board here, such as turning off and even removing all Mail plug-ins including SpamSieve, but without positive results. I've tried un-selecting 'Store draft msgs on server', as well as the option for junk and sent msgs. but again without any difference. Going Offline within Mail also makes no difference to its memory hogging or CPU usage.
    I notice this is an issue that's been around since last year (wish I'd known that before upgrading to Yosemite today) and I am just completely flabbergasted that it still exists. Would've thought Apple'd have fixed it in the first but certainly in the second incremental OSX Yosemite release.
    Is there anything else I could try that's proven to be effective in stopping Mail's massive memory leak?

    Okay, I've run Disk Util and restarted. Seems to have made a little bit of a difference to the RAM gobbling in that it appears to be going at a slower rate, but it's still up at around the 45Gb after an hour. Here's the EtreCheck report in the hope that it helps.

  • Possible Memory Leak, many instances of macromedia.jdbc.oracle.OracleConnection, serviceFactory

    I'm using a plug-in for Eclipse to help identify possible memory leaks however we are having trouble interpreting the results.  The top, and pretty much the only, suspect is this...
    7,874 instances of "macromedia.jdbc.oracle.OracleConnection", loaded by "coldfusion.bootstrap.BootstrapClassLoader @ 0xf935218" occupy 604,781,904 (71.02%) bytes. These instances are referenced from one instance of "java.util.HashMap$Entry[]", loaded by "<system class loader>"
    Any ideas what could cause this many instances?  How do we track this back to a particular cfm or cfc?  Do these number seem high or is that normal?  The system in question normally only has 30-60 concurrent users.
    The one item I'm a little skeptical of is the use of the "coldfusion.server.ServiceFactory" and "coldfusion.sql.QueryTable" objects.  We use them for 1000s of different queries, even queries within large loops.  Could these be the problem?  Each time we need to execute a query we do a createObject for each of these objects, when done we close the connection.  I recently found a similar example where they close the recordSet first and then close the connection, we are not closing the recordSet.  Any help at all is much appreciated.

    It could simply be caused by the obvious: a query or queries making a large number of connections and/or consuming large resources on the Oracle database. Use Eclipse to search your application folder for queries. Can you identify any queries that could be the culprit? Is there a loop containing a method or an instance of a component that queries an Oracle database?
    What's your Coldfusion  version? If you're on CF8 or CF9 then the server monitor (in the Coldfusion Administrator) might tell you the process responsible for the high consumption.
