Space under $ORACLE_BASE/$ORACLE_HOME keeps increasing why

I am on Oracle 10.2.0.4 on HP UNIX 11.2. I am running a program which has an infinite loop. Each loop iteration sleeps for 15 seconds, does some datbase access using jdbc…? I am noticing that space under $ORCALE_BASE keeps increasing. My program is definitely not writing any files under $ORACLE_BASE, so Oracle is creating some files, else how can I explain increase in $ORACLE_BASE. When I stop the program, space shrinks back to original, so looks like file has been deleted.
My program could have some cursors not being closed, but this will increase the memory of Oracle shadow process and not space under $ORACLE_BASE. Are there any memory mapped files, where shared memory is being mapped to some file under $ORACLE_BASE. I am unable to find any such files using:
Find . –mtime -1
I see some Oracle files such as Oracle agent log, listener.log but do not see anything unusual. Can someone explain what is going on and how can I troubleshoot this problem.

It is a java [program, it does various selects, inserts, updates; it writes its execution log under /gps/twq/db3 and
ORACLE_BASE is /gpsg/twq/oracle
bdf shows...

  • Why is Uncategorized Used Memory keeps increasing???

    Hello, I'm making an Android game with Flash pro cc. And now I'm testing performance using the Scout. So I ran my game with Flash Pro cc's Control - Test Movie - Air Debug Launcher. And I played about 5 levels of my game, but the number of "Uncategorized" under Used Memory keeps increasing. Others such as Action Script Objects, Bitmap, ByteArrays under Used Memory decreases over time which I think it means it's garbage collecting. Is it normal to have Uncategorized keep increasing??? If no, how can I fix it so that it decreases??

    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/scout/articles/scout-memory-profiling.html
    From the link:
    Uncategorized – other memory that Flash Player is using, but doesn't yet track. This includes sound and video buffers, XML data, and memory used by Stage3D, as well as numerous small data structures that are used internally by Flash Player. We plan to add additional categories in future versions of Scout.
    In my experience, it's inconsistent and can at times consume a lot, while other times not so much. It's a nuiscance category for sure. Don't count on being able to reduce it will a silver bullet.

    If you're using an IMAP account, also check your other devices to be sure you don't have some filters or rules set up that either delete or move emails to subfolders. You can see all Emails on your iPad, but displaying the sidebar showing Mailboxes, tapping the email account you are having trouble with (NOT the Inbox, but the section below), then tapping All Mail or something similar depending on your provider.
    If the mails are there, they are somehow being moved by one of your mail clients or by a rule you set up with your provider.

  • Why is there space under the copyright bar on the contact page?

    why is there space under the copyright bar on the contact page? all the other pages in the site fit flush at the bottom except on the contact and coaching page. does anyone know why? thanks

    What I'm saying is that the footer will always follow the content above it.  On short pages, footer may not align with bottom of browser viewport because the page content above isn't long enough to fill the screen.  Since everyone uses different display sizes, this is perfectly normal behavior and shouldn't be a major concern.

  • I am trying to open space in my macbook hard drive, so I deleted files and after emptying the trash bin the amount of Gigs didn't increase, why? Where can I go and delete those files?

    I am trying to open space in my macbook hard drive, so I deleted files and after emptying the trash bin the amount of Gigs didn't increase, why? Where can I go and delete those files?

    Did you do a secure empty trash? SHIFT COMMAND DELETE, they will be over wriiten. Are you deleting docs as they aren't much space, videos,pictures,music use much more space.
    You can move those fiels to an external "archive" drive to save them then delete them from your internal drive.

    Hello Pramod,
    >>I have an application in which windows handle count keeps increasing
    If the windows handle(I assume you mean the object handles in Taks Manager bar) keeps increasing, it should means that the project keeps allocating new objects and does not close/dispose them. I notice that you are using ADO.NET API, I am wondering how you
    manage these connections, do you close/dispose the connection immediately after using them? If not, please do it and it is recommended.
    Please check if you call method to close/dispose connections in a finalize method, if so, this is not recommended since in a finalize method, these connections object would still keep alive and does not return to the connection pool, and for new connection
    request, application might increase more connection number to meet the request.
    You could make a test to call GC.Collect() to test if there is a memory leak, if it has, you could check this
    article, or it could be also a handle leak, this
    blog might be helpful for it.

  • Problems with system restore points in Win 8.1 (keep increasing in size)

    Hi,
    I was sent here by Microsoft Support who seem to have no idea of the mechanics of System Restore and what could interfere with it. I've no idea where to post this, so I hope you can help in that.
    I have the problem that my System Restore point (only a single point) keeps increasing rapidly in size from a few Mb to many Gb and even fills the C drive if I don't stop it. Setting a limit to the size doesn't help (in System Restore or VSS), as it ignores
    it and increases the limit. I have tried all the usual (sfc, DISM, chkdsk, several antivirus and malware programs) with no success.
    Obviously, I can turn off System Restore, but that isn't really something I want to do.

    When you say "system backup", do you mean generation of system restore points or an actual backup? i don't use MSBackup.
    Hi,
    What I meant system backup is system backup feature that it would create restore point when you enable system backup automatically.
    I made a test in our testing enviroment. limit restore point disk space usage to minize, create some restore point. When I create a seconde restore point, it would replace the former time point. The maxize disk space usage won't more than the limiation.
    Therefore, please check the size of Restore Point in C:\System Volume Information if it's larger than system limiation.

  • Space under flash movies

    Hi All,
    I am having an annoying problem:  when I use swfobject code to embed flash movies, it leaves a space under the movie that breaks the design.  This happens when viewing it in Chrome or Firefox (on a mac), but not in Safari.  I have found that when I just paste in the <object> code alone
    created when I publish the movie out of flash into my HTML document, the space disappears.  I have tried removing all line breaks and extra spaces
    from the swfobject code to no avail.  This also happens when I add the movie in using Dreamweaver CS4 (insert->media->swf) , which uses
    swfobject.
    Here is an affected page, note the space under both the header flash movie, and the main movie under the nav: http://hamptonsdesignstudio.com/index2.html
    Here is the page with just the object code and the desired design: http://hamptonsdesignstudio.com/index.html
    I would like to be able to use swfobject to provide alternate content for
    search engines, but not at the expense of breaking my design. Any
    suggestions ?
    Thanks,
    Colin

    Glad you figured it out.
    It would be good if you could mark this thread as Answered so the folks who help will not need to keep clicking on it.  thanks.

  • White space under table on page how to get rid of it

    I created a new page, inserted a table to fill the page and
    put in a background color. When I look at the page in Dreamweaver,
    there is no white space under the table at the bottom of the page.
    When I preview the page in a browser, the table ends about an inch
    from the bottom of the page and I have about an inch of white space
    under the table. Does anyone have an idea why this is happening?
    Thanks for any help you can give. I'm going crazy trying to
    get rid of it.
    Diane

    Fix up the errors with your html firstly - then see where you
    are at with
    the page....
    The first thing to do would be to get rid of the table
    heights - it's
    invalid and won't render cross browser anyway. Error:

    Use margin, for example:

  • Apps keep increasing in size

    can someone help me out?? i just got the new ipad, and i was wondering why my apps keep increasing in size. even if i don't do anything
    with it, it just starts increasing and its starting to take out a lot of room :S someone please help!

    But you would think it would eventually stop downloading. I had an app for a month or two that just kept increasing. It started off at around 60MB then eventually increased to 3GB! I had to delete it.
    Yes, maybe it was saving the data I was accumulating, but that seems stupid for an app to do. It should all be server based so it doesn't take up room on your device. Because eventually the app would get too large and you simply couldn't run it on your device anymore.

  • 'Other' folder keeps increasing

    Hey guys,
    Why do my 'other' folder keeps increasing? I just do normal web browsing on my Macbook and school work.
    For example, when I placed the computer to sleep, it is sitting on 17.65gb. When I wake it up, it will jump to 19.54gb. Doing normal web browsing or opening applications will increase it also. Same thing with my photos usage amount.
    Is there a way to stop it from eating my hard drive? Why is it doing this? What should I do?!?

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender mdworker -o -k Sender mds | grep -v boxd | tail | open -f -a TextEdit
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    If any personal information appears in the output, anonymize before posting, but don’t remove the context.
