RAM underclocks when cpu FSB increased??? help?

This is my first time overclocking so sorry if i sound dumb lol.
Anyways, I have an MSI p6n Sli Platinum (retail bios), an E6420, and OCZ reaper 800 RAM.
So my problem is;
Just to start out, I increased the FSB from 1066 to 1070, and when I rebooted, I noticed that my RAM speed went from 800MHz to about 786MHz.
So whenever I increase the CPU's FSB, the RAM speed decreases.
Could anyone tell me why, and how to fix it so I can finally OC?
I do have the cpu and ram thing set to 'linked'. Could this be why?
Please someone help guide me through this, I really would like some increased performance. thanks.

To Aaron: This is the overclocking forum right? I'm not here to "use what I have". What kind of advice or help is that. Totally inappropriate for this forum. No one in here is under any illusions that a 1 Mhz increase in FSB is going to make a difference. It is an example used to illustrate what is happening with the board. mmmkay. Thanks.
But he/she's complaining, it's appropriate IMO. No one likes a whiner.
If you say that you know increasing by 1FSB won't do anything, why did he/she bother doing it? Jump straight to 333FSB, set DRAM ratio to 1:1.2, CPU @ 3GHz and RAM @ 800Mhz, what's the problem with doing that?
I also said this earlier and he/she ignored it completely:

It has to be big steps:
333x8=2664MHz CPU clock. 1333FSB QDR
333x1.33=442MHz (884MHz DDR), Reapers will handle this easy, then start tighenting timmings. Or set divider to 1.5:1 to get a DDR speed of 1GHz, I would recomend 5-5-5-15 timings, then tighten them down. Increase voltage only if necessary.
Make sure you have sufficient cooling...
And just to add, hijacking isn't nice either.

Annoying problem that happens when cpu fsb is set to 133

Hi, i have a real annoing problem wich occurs when i set my fsb on my spu to 133(which it is supposet to be set on). It's a while now since i bought my computer. i can start of with the specs before I go any deeper now.
i use:
Motherbord MSI KT4 Ultra
CPU AMD athlon xp 2400 2.0 ghz
Gainward Geforce 4 4600
and 256 ddr ram
as i said when the fsb on the cpu is set to 133 it wont get in to the os, it just reboots itself when the winxp load menu comes up. however if i set the fsb down to 100 everything works (besides that i now am running at 1.8 ghz or something)
now the thing is when i bought it i had no use for 2.0 ghz when i bouth it so i dint care much and learned to live wih it but now games requires more power and so i want what i payed for, but the problem still stands i cant use optmal power due to this.. anyone have a clue of what i can do to fix this, is it a physical hardware malfunction, or can i fix this?
please please respond..

hm, im not that good in technical terms in english, what do you mean?
that my power supply isnt up for the job, that it could be my ram and i have not to good cooling?
as for the cooling i bought what was supported for my cpu.. it might be the power supply, i have had problems with power supply earlier but i bought a brand new one. the RAM i have no idea on..

After increasing the RAM in Database CPU 80% used.

HI,
We are currently running EBS 12.0.6 ith database 10.2.0.3 multi node env (this is production)
After increasing the RAM in application from 8 to 16 GB and in database from 16 to 24 GB, I start the database and my database running normal but when I starts the application services then CPU Utilization goes upto 70% to 80%, and my all users are seriously facing very bad recponse.
I have no idea what is happning in our system, but when I revert back the RAM's to 8 GB in application and 16 GB in database my application and Database working normal.
Please assist me???????????

HI,
I have checked the kernel-hugemem as:
# rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-smp-2.6.9-67.EL
kernel-hugemem-devel-2.6.9-67.EL
kernel-devel-2.6.9-67.EL

kernel-utils-2.4-13.1.105
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-67.EL
kernel-xenU-devel-2.6.9-67.EL
kernel-2.6.9-67.EL
What is the meaning of above output, I mean have already kernel-hugemem rmp installed?
If yes then why the system not using it.
When I had install 24 GB RAM, my OS detect it and also show the RAM 24 GB (checked by free command), but my Database was having high CPU after increasing RAM 24 upto 24 GB.
So, Should I install this rpm "kernel-hugemem-2.6.9-67.EL.i686.rpm"?????

RAM issues regarding CPU + Mobo & OC'ing

edited from different thread
Hi there,
I've been having problems with my RAM, that is its running at 333mhz/freq = 157 etc.. I'll list my old system as well as my new one which will help explain my confusion....hopefully....
My new system is thus:
-MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum
-BFG 7800GTX
-AMD Athlon 64 3500+ (Newcastle core default settings/2.2ghz)
-2 GB DDR-400 3200 (3 x 512mb chips are Kingmax, 1 x 512mb chip is Generic....I have realised they are different timings using CPU-Z, i.e. Generic has different timings too the Kingmax chips)
-Super flower 500w PSU
-Thermaltake Big Water cooling kit (CPU)
-Western Digital 300GB SATA HDD
-And old Seagate barracuda 40GB HDD
-Windows XP SP2
I have been told by the Moderator "Tiresmoke" to include more information, is it OK to posts links to each product?
My old system is thus:
-MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
-AMD Athlon 64 3500+ (Newcastle core default settings/2.2ghz)
-GameCube X800XT-PE
-(same RAM as above)
-X-Connect 500w PSU
-Thermaltake Big Water cooling kit (CPU) (same as above)
-Western Digital 300GB SATA HDD (same as above)
-And old Seagate barracuda 40GB HDD (same as above)
-Windows XP SP2 (same as above)
So here is whats happening...
My old system when it first got put together, the RAM ran at 333mhz instead of 400mhz...however, I took my PC out to work so a mate of mine could help me out. Anyway, from memory I think he did a BIOS update, but whatever he did....when the PC booted up...the freq read as 200 and the RAM of course speed up to 400mhz...and I could tell in games like FarCry that there was a big difference. Plus CPU-Z showed me the difference...
But I've been reading everywhere....that 4 x 512mb chips will not allow 400mhz speeds....I noticed all my RAM chips are double sided
Anyway, my question is...how do I now (with my new system) do what my mate did? Is it because he say....enabled manual instead of auto in the DRAM config?......I also tried enabling manual mode with only 1GB of memory in dual channel mode, which did change the freq to 200mhz, giving the memory a speed of 400mhz, but I did not notice a considerable performace gain (using 3DMark05)
I'm also guessing I really need to tighten my memory timings, however I'm very new to that kind of thing, I have read many articles about overclocking (which I realise I have to do due to the 7800GTX), and Im still not comfortable about doing it until I find an article or guide that is specific with overclocking for the motherboard I have, and Im guessing for the CPU and RAM would help also.
Or....did he turn on D.O.T. which I believe overclocks the FSB, in-turn overclocking the RAM freq?
If I'm way off....please tell me so...because I dont have a real idea! But I would like to thank any and all help, although I cant offer you gold and silver, I do appreciate the time you have taken to help me out.
Regarding what Blackngold said in the other thread, I will try changing 1T to 2T to see if that helps, it may already be 2T but I will check, thank you for your input.
Regarding what Jaybee said, if that is true that the Newcastle core cannot support 4 dimms...should I sell all 4x512mb sticks and instead get 2x1GB sticks?
I realise I need to really overclock my CPU to relieve the bottlenecking of the 7800GTX, so I'm asking for anyone who has prior experience with a similiar setup as mine, in general overclocking or knowledge of other overclocking guides to please help me out, I have tried to understand guides from other websites, but I'm still confused. Even if someone here is kind enough to go through step by step with me, I would really appreciate your help.
Thank you for your patience in reading my request, take care.

Ok...but the problem was increasing the FSB.....and as for increasing the memory, I realise I have to change it back to 200mhz, but Im getting to that part after I overclock the CPU, I guess thats how its suppost to go? According to the guide Im using anyway...I dont understand how you can test one of them at a time, seeing as increasing the FSB increases the RAM frequencing.
You are testing one at a time by lowering the memory to 100. Increasing the "FSB" will result in memory speed less the 200, we know the memory is good up to 200, so... This way you are pushing the CPU to it's limit but the memory is still running far less then what it can. In this example the CPU max speed is found then you bring up the memory like you said above.

Also, there would be no point in getting PC4000 RAM seeing as the Neo4 platinum only supports up to PC3200, plus I was thinking of getting OCZ 2GB (2x1GB Kit) EL DDR PC-3200 Dual Channel Platinum Kit (CL 2-3-2-5) anyway, looks like its good RAM.
That's just because there isn't an official PC4000 spec. It will run fine and can use it's potential in this board although if we can't get you higher then 225HTT(FSB) then PC4000 is overkill, as you wouldn't quite max out PC3700 right now. I've seen memory running at 350Mhz(700Mhz) in your board. That's like PC5600! Rule number one, don't believe MSI.
I like that OCZ kit you are talking about.

Diamond Plus; Cell Menu CPU FSB Set at 250 x11 but Board Running 200.9 x14

I have FSB set at 250 with the CPU multiplier set at x11. Memory is set at an FSB / DRAM ratio of 1:1. The memory modules are in slots 1 and 2 (green / purple). While in the BIOS Cell Menu it is reporting Memory frequency at DDR500 and the CPU at a slight underclock. This agrees with the above settings. However, in BIOS / Standard CMOS Features / CPU Configuration, it shows the CPU running at 2816Mhz with a multiplier of x14. This is equal to the settings (200.9 x14) that are applied when "Load Optimized Defaults" is loaded and saved. All of the settings in the rest of BIOS setup are definitely set to Manual and the setting values as noted in the first sentence.
CPUZ is also reporting a FSB of 200 with a multiplier of x14. It's showing the memory as PC3200 and running at DDR400 which makes sense if FSB is really running at 200. Long story short, it's reporting everything at the stock settings as set by "Load Optimized Defaults". It is correctly showing the memory in dual channel and the command address rate at 1T. This is the latest version of CPUZ. I had an older version saved on CD. I tried this old version and it reported the same thing.
I have all of the dynamic overclocking options, wakeup options, cool n' quiet and automatic fan speed controls (except northbridge) disabled. If there's any other options that could throttle down the CPU I sure couldn't find them. Even if there were, my CPU is running atb 39C at idle so it shouldn't kick in any thermal throttling. When I flashed to the version 1.19 BIOS version at MSI Tech Support's direction to solve the "phantom modem" issue, I took the extreme route to clearing CMOS; powered down, removed or disconnected all the components, pressed the clear CMOS button, removed the battery for 30 minutes, pressed the clear CMOS button again, reinserted the battery, pressed the clear CMOS button yet again, reinstalled / reconnected the minimum required components, flashed the BIOS, cleared CMOS again, cleared nvram, loaded optimized defaults and saved, manually adjusted all the settings, reinstalled / reconnected the remaining components.
I'm at a loss to explain this. MSI Tech Support says they can't help me because this involves overclocking and they're not allowed to provide advice.
Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this?
Thanks in advance for any help provided.

I've been experimenting with different combinations of FSB / Multipliers / Memory dividers. My best performance is with the CPU at 250 x12 for 3.0 GHz, and memory still at 3-3-2-8, 1:1 and 1T. This is all at stock voltages and I'm not willing to risk frying anything by raising it even a little bit. It's running fast, smooth and cool. That's all I'm looking for so that's as far as I'm going to take it.

I'm getting the same anomaly with the value for CPU Fan. That's the chipset fan speed for sure. It matches the BIOS reading and it's the only fan I have plugged into the mainboard. Everything else is running from a rheobus.
The NB temp on this mainboard is really exceptional. The NB on my old DFI SLI-DR routinely ran in the 48-49C range. I guess the MSI cooling solution is pretty efficient. One other thing though, I'm using Arctic Silencers on both of my graphics boards. The intake fan on the "slave" board is directly above one of the chipsets. That may be drawing an additional bit of heat off of the chipset.
As far as the voltage values, I'm getting the same skew with a different mainboard, BIOS and PSU so this looks like an Everest issue.
IMHO, if your machine isn't doing flakey things that can't be attributed to anything else then your PSU is adequate. If you do go with the Diamond Plus and SLI, I would suggest upgrading the PSU. It seems that the 1 kilowatt PSU's are all the rage now but in reality 700W is more than adequate. Adjustable potentiometers must be nice if you know what you're doing with them. I don't so I don't bother looking for that feature.
Hope this is helpful or at least of some interest.

MSI Big Bang-XPower II More MB RAM than the CPU can handle...

I understand reading in a few forum post :" By making more memory available to the system more data can be cached in RAM, so there will be less hard drive activity, and less swapping to memory so your system will perform better." But what happen when motherboard for a desktop that supports( and had install) more RAM than the processor can handle?(aka:processor Max Memory Size).
Please comment in this configuration.as I 'm looking for a MB than offer me the more SATA6 connection i found a few available using LGA2011 socket (MSI Big Bang-XPower II LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6GB/s USB 3.0 XL ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS) than support 128GB. As I understand the processor Intel® Core™ i7-3930K Processor only work with 64GB.
Is there any advantage to have a MB that hold a bigger RAM capacity than the CPU? If so, how can this be translate using in a program like Adobe After Effects, RAM preview? thank

More Memory doe's not make it faster as its Volatile Memory (more RAM but it has to be run at much slower speeds) that is very short term and is just a buffer for active Programs and files it Caches there while its active but in no way improves system speed (as it has to be clocked slower to allow the IMC on the CPU to cope with it)! more memory just allows more Active Large programs and files open at the same time and huge amount of ram will only really be of benefit for things like Video Editing, photo editing and 3D rendering as those take alot of ram to allow all the computations that the CPU does to be held for quick access but only when they are active!
having more RAM then your CPU can Handel is a VERY BAD IDEA as it will just refuse to even post or in very rare cases damage the CPU's IMC leading to a dead CPU!
why MSI have done that is for possible later 2011 CPU's that may allow the 128GB of RAM limit to be used but currently they do not exist currently as X79 is a more professional grade Platform that will probably be around for years to come (may be used for many upgrade cycles and may eventually have a cpu that can use 128GB or ram) and who knows what will happen with Intel CPU's in that time frame! (more of a possible forward compatibility thing as its a very high end platform)
as for after effects it uses RAM for holding Render Files so in theory more ram will just allow it to render Larger files that are more complex without hitting the Available Ram ceiling that your computer has but it will not render any faster as a result it just gives it more headroom to work in!
so overall more ram = more Active space available & no increase in speed (actually maybe a drop in speed as it needs to run slower causing LAG/Latency) so it all depends what is important to you here to whether more ram is of any benefit or just a hindrance but that is down to your own use case scenario!

Audio / video delivery slow when concurrent users increases

hi,
When concurrent users increases my a/v conent delivery to the client is very slow.\ or even drop.
Feel breaks in the session. but when check my server rsourses, almost free.
One more observation, when i liesten to the recorded stream everything seems to be fine like there is nothing oing bad in live session.
Is there somthing which is missing for concurrent users for FMS config file.
Please help me. Suddenly this issue comes in picture because of nubers f user increasing on FMS
thanks,
vishal

thanks for response.
Resources which i am monitor is Memory usage, cpu and bandwidth.
CPU usage for FMSCore.exe some time increases just bout 10-20 % and at that moment all connected users feel latency as well as the break in sesion.
please help me out from this issue.
thanks,

1394 Inoperative, FSB Increase (BIOS)

After raising the FSB in BIOS from the default 200MHz to 210MHz, the 1394 Firewire hardware fails to function properly. When I look in the Device Manager, there is a yellow exclamation symbol next to it. When I click on it, it says "This device failed to load" or somthing to that extent. When I bring the FSB speed back to it's default speed settings, it does not fix the problem, I have to uninstall the device then scan for hardware changes for it to work again. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused.

c&q used to work with it ,i tried a while back but the game i was playing would not kick it back to high gear all i could do was adjust the fsb in core center and it went from 800 to 830 as 30 pt fsb increase.(clawhammer core).
but i have since disabled it and left it on fast mode.

How do I change CPU FSB Freq on 975X Platinum Pue

Hi all!
I´m thinking about overclocking my CPU and that will be my first time ever. So I am a complete noob in this matter.
I have already read the sticky "975x Platinum Pue Overclocking Guide" (I do have that board) and will have it for reference later.
1. I have one question regarding changing CPU FSB frequency. I´m asked to key in a DEC number. But how should I do it. The guide says to "Start from 266 fsb increase by 3 fsb". So do I have to put in 269 to begin with, or how else do I change the number.
2. One other thing I want to ask of before I begin. My memory is Corsair XMS2 2x1GB 800MHz PC2-6400 CL5 in Dual channel. But in Bios it says 667MHz and voltage 1.8. Do I need to adjust memory clock ratio and the voltage before I begin overclocking?
3. My third question is: if overclocking Core 2 Duo E6400 to about 3.2GHz could I face some stability issue in regard to my PSU of 410W? (that my PSU could influence the system stability in a negative way). My system is very stable I think and the PSU fan is very quiet.
4. I´m using the the most recent Speedfan and it shows unusually high cpu temps, about 100c which is wrong as I´m using hardware temperature monitor which says about 35c idle and the BIOS says about the same. Which software cpu temp monitor would you recommend?

Speedfan is no good for Core2 Duo + 975xPUE, use CoreTemp
To change your FSB, simply put in a new number. The multiplier is locked on this board still I believe, so to calculate the frequency you'll get, just multiply the FSB by 9 and that should give it to you. So, yes, that means do 269, stress test, then 272, stress test, etc. BUT, the 266 they used in that guide is from an E6600, you don't have that. You want to start from whatever it is as default.
The reason you go up by 3 is because of stability issues as far as voltage is concerned. That is to say, go up by three, stress test (i like to use 2 instances of Folding@Home) and if it crashes, raise the voltage a little.
Make your fsb:memory ratio 1:1 always, and that means it will run a little slower than what it's rated at to begin with but then you can move up from there. As a beginner doing a pretty small overclock, you shouldn't worry about RAM. At 3.2GHz your RAM will be running at 712MHz, which is a little slower, but once you get more experienced that means you'll be able to tighten the timings.
Good luck and be safe

Question about CPU FSB and K7N2-L

This is probably a nub question, but here goes anyway:
I currently have an 1800 XP Palomino processor which supports 266mhz fsb. I just installed this board with this processor and left all the jumpers at default. After reading the manual it says I should short jumper J11 (133/166mhz) on the mobo, and make the appropriate settings in the bios to achieve 266mhz for the cpu fsb. Now, I know it says this in the manual, but I thought I'd better make sure that this is the right procedure before I go ahead and do it so I don't screw anything up.
If anyone could help me out on this it would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Cheers... it's interesting how many people make that mobo/RAM choice. I use a K7N2G-L with Crucial PC2700 DDR (2x256) and it works fine. Kudos on reading the manual, frequently it has the answers you're looking for. You're correct... make sure J10 (FSB Mode Jumper-133MHz position) and J11 (FSB Frequency Jumper-133/166 position) are set correctly, BIOS settings on the "Advanced Chipset Features" page are correct for your processor/RAM, and you should be all set. There is a good article on driver loading order (by liquidsoul) on the http://www.amdforums.com site... look under "MSI Motherboards".

Poor RAM management in Photoshop CS4 - need help!

I have done numerous hours of research over the years only to give up and come back to this subject later on. I will try again!
I must ask: is there ANY way to get Photoshop CS4 to automatically flush used RAM after closing image files? I'm tired and annoyed of CS4 eating more and more RAM without freeing anything after an image has been closed. An image shouldn't still eat up memory when it isn't even open anymore. It seems to be terrible RAM management of the program itself and how Adobe has forgotten to write that little snippit of code to clear the RAM after an image has been closed.
I know this is not because of:
Cache levels
Setting too large of a saved history state; purging history cache or any kind of cache still never frees RAM
A lack of updates; I have been up to date with CS4 very punctually as they were released
The computer I am on; this poor RAM management has been around since CS2 and it's the same on the last 4 computers I have used
Does CS5 still do this too?

Your historically conditioned to believe software apps should swap data a standard way. The way your using the system is probably not the most effective processing for your workflow.
- I have hundreds of TIFFS that take 60-120MB each in processing, and 8gb of RAM. The more total RAM actually usable that I can use the better. How the heck can using less of what is actually available RAM enhance my workflow? Standard are standards for a reason. The ink industry for printing is non-standardized and people waste $3-5 billion+ a year only increasing on unused ink that is still remaining in their cartridges, because there is no standard way of manufacturing ink, filling cartridges, or monitoring how much ink is actually left in a cartridge. I'd love for more standards in more markets. Unless natively stable, all other programs on my computer work flawlessly with said demonized traditional methods and standards, even in high bandwidth applications a hell of a lot more intensive than Photoshop CS4 will EVER be. Currently people keep disregarding the fact that in my situation CS DOESNT FREE THE RAM. CS4 is balloon. Balloon inflate. Never deflate even when emptied. Overflow into other rooms of critical OS space where balloon shouldn't be when it fill the room full. How many analogies must I give? Must I use sign language? Binary?
You don’t have enough experience with these topics. This is actually a
true statement. Most companies with systems large and small have to
think about what it costs to process specific jobs. If one in a thousand
jobs swap, a decision must be made to know how much it would cost to
retrofit a very expensive environment to keep that one job swap from
occurring. Most times it is better to let the swap happen for this
non-mission critical item than pay $50,000 to upgrade all systems.
I said NON EMERGENCY SITUATIONS. Emergencies are once in a while. You're repeating what I said like a parrot, but in different longer sentences with more words telling me I don't get what I'm talkinga bout. You're missing the full picture of what I am actually saying. That 1 in 1000 overflow would be exactly true in my situation with 7GB used, but it's not. Why not? Because the CS4 balloon will not deflate itself or reuse the empty space inside the balloon when it's needed, and the OS isn't given back any of the empty space to work with to know it doesn't need to page anything. In turn CS4 is going to try and scratch too when the OS is telling it that is has no more RAM left when indeed it does, but its hiding it in its own reserve balloon from itself. If a company needed just 700MB more room and either they spend $50k to upgrade to that, or get CS4 to release some space once in awhile, they'd sure as hell bother Adobe or write their own mod to force CS4 to release unused allocated RAM to get it.
Self inflicted only because I want to push the limit of what is actually usable on my machine, not some 'safe zone' with high tolerance. My system is tuned for a fine line of performance and I know what it can hande. I know what it uses and it does not spike usage for random OS operations. It can handle 7GB to 7.2GB of RAM of freely used RAM to one active program if it needs that big of a workspace to work. If CS4 isn't going to reuse the hollow areas in that balloon, then that's not my fault. My OS can handle the fine tuning, and CS4 is what cannot, obviously, since it can see that much RAM but not use the last %10 correctly.

CPU load increases at times

We are running Weblogic 6.0 with SP2 on Win/NT Server. The Server has 2 CPU with 2 GB RAM.
But at times thru perfmon we see the Both the CPU load increased to 100% and the users
freeze.
Any Suggestion, Pl let us know.
Thanks in advance.

You can kill -3 even if nohup'd as long as stderr is redirected to a file
that you can tail (for example).

Send the java process a SIGQUIT to get a thread dump. This implies thatyou
not be running with nohup: run as foreground process without the -hotspot
compiler option.
Example: kill -3 pid
(pid is the id of the java process you are signalling)

EEM -automatic shut down or switch over of WAN link in OSPF when packet drop increase

Hi,
Need help..
can any one help me how can EEM help for automatic shut down or switch over of WAN link in OSPF when packet drop increase a predefined level.
I have a set up different branches connected together...OSPF is the routing protocol and need to communicate with two branches via hub locations.
need to shut or switch some percent of traffic from primary to back up when packet drop in the link.

I am not sure EEM can do what you want.
Another option could be to use SLA tacking/monitoring. But you will fall back to the new route when you lose some percentage of pings, you can't switch only part of the traffic.
I hope it helps.

How to restore system RAM memory when i run DI batch job process

How to restore system RAM memory when i run DI batch job process
I use SAP-B12005SP53 and i develop with Business Partner Object

HI ALL
TAKE CARE: Nothing was working in VB6, but in .NET it sets the default value !
from help of VS.
When you assign Nothing to an object variable, it no longer refers to any object instance. If the variable had previously referred to an instance, setting it to Nothing does not terminate the instance itself. The instance is terminated, and the memory and system resources associated with it are released, only after the garbage collector (GC) detects that there are no active references remaining.
Garbage Collector distroyes the objects at the end of the sub of function, not in the loop.
So use local variables when you loading the 7000 items. For me working fine and i do not have a memory problems. I am loading 50000 items with prices from EDI file, and memory usage stops at 120MB.
1st solution create a sub or a function to populate the data, and run this for every items by as single rutin,
sub x
    Dim obj As New Object()
        Try
... put here your update code
        Catch ex As Exception
        Finally
            GC.Collect()
        End Try
end sub
This free up the memory when Garbage
2nd solution: use inner loop definition
sub x
Try
            Do While True
                Dim obj As New Object()
            Loop
        Catch ex As Exception
        Finally
            GC.Collect()
        End Try
end sub
This free up the memory inside the loop.
I recommend to use Friend Class keyword for your addon declaration and do not use modules.
Modules and shared classes will be free up the memory when your program terminates execution.
