System expanding to use all RAM when idle
Just had my Mac Book at the Apple Store for tests because the fan was running a lot & computer was running really slow. They found no hardware problem but suggested my problem was that the 2G of Ram was not enough because the system with nothing open was using over 75% of the RAM. Installed 4G of RAM, now 2 days later, having restarted the computer several times, the system has expanded to using 80% of the RAM with just Safari open. Anyone else having this problem.. open to suggestions. Have reset the PRAM, Reset SMC, ran long harddrive test, had it to the Apple store, had them run there tests on?? This is a 13' Mac Book (late 2007) model, running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with UTD software, now with 4G of RAM using 3.81G of RAM with just Safari and the Activity Monitor open. Thoughts, suggestions, cures .. all would be appreciated!
Thanks!
You can find out which application is eating up your memory in Activity Monitor. Selet "All Processes" from the drop down on the right side of the window (next to the search field). Then click on the header for the column marked "Real Mem". This will list all of the process running sorted by how much memory they are reserving, and will give you a clue as to where the problem is.
What web pages do you have open in Safari? Safari can grab large amount of memory depending what kind of plugins a particular site uses.

System suddenly is using all ram
Hi, Can someone please assist as to what may be causing the issue I'm having?
Problem description:
System is cycling every 6 to 8 minutes using all ram (16) gigs. This has not happened before. I”m lost as to what to do other than the basic.

6 MB Page-outsI Thought that ram memory cycling from 12 to 0 gigs or so was and is a problem in and of itself. As you've explained and demonstrated it's not. But this scenario that is now playing out has never happened since I've had this Mac Mini. Again many thanks.
SO if I may ask one other question separate from the above.
In updating to Yosemite would you recommend a clean install or just upgrading? I've not done a clean install since purchasing the Mini but I was thinking since I'm having issues with the system hanging and spinning icons perhaps performing a wipe is warranted. If so, I understand I can not just format and download Yosemite but I must reinstall Snow Leopard then update to Yosemite. Is this correct? Since I've upgraded the ram from 4 gigs to 8 and earlier this year to 16 gigs, will Snow Leopard recognize 16 gigs of ram?
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. -
Using 10.5 have had system slow down used pr ram now all I have is a blue screen
need help used pram to reset system now it either shows the pin wheel turning or sometimes it will go to the blue screen but nothing else. all started when I downloaded one of the security that apple sent to down load.
need help please what to I do now, are we looking at a bad hard drive?sorry if this is a duplicate response first one said error.
is this the battery under the airport card section?
also installed a disk for hardware trouble restarted and held the C key came up with mac-boot. did this and I got a file folder with the apple Icon face and a question mark flashing back and forth . what do you think? could all of this just be a loose connection to the hard drive? Battery read on digital meter 3.1 volt dc I know under load this could change. -
Photoshop Using All RAM And Making 15gb TEMP Files-HELP!?
Hey Guys,
Having a massive issue with Photoshop CC right now and need help asap!
I was recently working a on a really big PSB file (about 6gb or so) I finished the job, saved it, sent it to client, all went nicely. However now when I open Photoshop for whatever reason it instantly uses all of my RAM, and creates a huge 15gb RandomPrice TEMP file on my SSD scratch disk (as shown in the screenshot, excuse the crude snipping tool skills.) I have tried deleting the TEMP file, restarting my PC and opening PS again but it just starts making the file again, it has also drastically slowed down the time it takes to open PS which used to be about 2 seconds, and is now approximately 20 seconds. I'm pretty well clueless what to do here so throw some suggestion my way guys! EDIT: This temp file always reverts to the exact same size after deleting it, right down to the KB. I can sit in explorer refreshing it, watching the size of the temp file going up, and as soon as it reaches 15,276,080KB Photoshop opens up correctly.
Cheers,
TomThe rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open. I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS. I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch. -
A mid 2011 iMac, 8 GB of RAM. If Safari is opened, it eventually consumes all RAM available and exhausts app memory. I have completely wiped and reloaded, Tried a variety of OS versions, now 10.10, and no luck. I'm pasting an Etre report for reference. I did follow one support tip to kill off Safari WebDav as that was going crazy as well. Any help appreciated.

Ssh uses 100% RAM when run from zsh.
As the title says... When i use zsh as my shell and want to connect to a server using "ssh server.hostname.bla" nothing happens.
But after a few seconds the system will be totally unusable.
I checked htop and was able to see that as soon as i enter that command, my RAM flooded.
As soon as i remove my zsh config (which has NOT changed at all for months now) things work as expected.
Here is my config:

Apparently, SwingWorkers by default all execute on the same background thread in JDK 1.6
Add these
import java.util.concurrent.Executor;
import java.util.concurrent.Executors;
At the top of your Main() add this
final Executor executor = Executors.newCachedThreadPool();
And in your actionPerformeds, execute your SwingWorkers like this
executor.execute(new Main.MyTask("First"));
This will execute each SwingWorker on a separate thread in a Thread pool. -
Why won't FCX use all cores when exporting a file?
Hi folks,
Latest version of FCX and Lion.
I'm trying to export 7 'projects' (or sequences) for archiving then processing for DVD.
Compressor still busts my kahonies so I'm not using it. I'm using Bitvice (far better compression as well).
Anyhoo, when I Share - export media and choose the file, click ok etc..., the file starts.
But my cores are barely operational. It's quite ridiculous. A 1 hour 22 minute ProRes file to 720x480 16:9 widescreen is taking near 23 minutes.
That doesn't seem right. I shouldn't have to beg this software to rip all 24 cores to their max (I have a 12 core 2.66 with 32 GB Ram).
I've been on so many "how-to's" over the year, that my head is spinning so can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong.
It sure seems like a simple thing.
Cheers,
KeeblerThanks WG.
Of all things Apple that I've used and owned, I've never been able to get Compressor to go full force. Well, I should say with ease and consistency. There have been a few moments of sparkling hope lol
Latest was a long series and tests with Apple FCP team. They recommended a complete rewipe and only installation of Compressor 4 and FCX without installing FCS3. Sounds like something was messed up with QMaster along the way. But that's another story.
You are right about these - already rendered and FCX probably needs to re-render as it outputs.
My irk is that my cores just aren't being used - I'm exporting a file right now and my CPU usage shows
<GULP> 95.57'ish % IDLE!
cheers,

Xorg using 30% cpu when idle,slow performance and video problems
I'm having a problem with Xorg, I don't know what it is but I guess it has something to do with configuration problems because in Ubuntu eerything works out of the box.
My problems are these:
1. Xorg is using arround 30% cpu when the computer is idle and very simple animations in kde like minimize a window are performed very poorly.
2. Compiz' performance is very poor and chopy
3. h264 videos are not wachable. it feels like watching 3fps videos.
as i mentioned above, i don't have any of these problems with ubuntu.

I'm running Logic 8 on a MacPro 8-core with 13 GB of RAM, but Logic always crashes once it's used about 6.5 GB of memory. I'm trying to run a lot of sample libraries and plugins at once (Vienna Instruments, EWQLSO with Kontakt2, Stylus, EXS24 instruments, etc.), but it reaches a limit and crashes, telling me "could not allocate enough memory" and other memory messages like that. How can I get Logic to use the rest of my RAM that's just sitting there?
Ok here's your first problem... 13 gigs of ram. If you read and pay attention to Apple's info, you'll see that they highly recommend you pair up the RAM chips and use the same ones, otherwise you're using 64bit memory addressing as opposed to 128, which of course means processing things faster. Look at your RAM configuration and look at which ones are not paired up, I'm thinking you have a pair of 512MB DIMMS in there which should be taken out, yes you'll lose a gig, big deal, you'll gain speed.
Second, Logic can't use more than 4 gigs of RAM. It's not a 64bit application. 64bit as it's compiled, I am not talking about the audio engine. The fact that it reaches 6.5GB is because EXS24 has its way of starting up more processes which can use 4gigs of ram Each. Logic itself is not using the 4 gigs.
The reason you crash is because one of the plugins you're using is not written properly to let Logic know that it's running out of RAM, and hence Logic tried to take up more and crashes because it can't address more than 4gigs of ram, and when it does... boom. As an example of that, BFD 1.5 used to be like that, until FX rewrote their code to work properly, and now when BFD2 tries to get above what Logic is capable of, it stops loading samples and throws up a little popup telling you you're running out of memory.
Your problem is not logic, it's one of those plugins which is not written properly.

Win2k8R2 svchost.exe suddenly starts to use all memory
Dear all
I have a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 + current Patchlevel Remote Desktop Host. Installed are a lot of applications, SCCM 2012 Client, Kasperksky AntiVirus Enterprise Edition.
Yesterday i had the problem that the svchost.exe is using all RAM of the Server (32GB) and has a private working set of 120GB. A quick "fix" was to restart the server. And now after around 24h i have the same problem again.
I did not change something on the server except install the Microsoft CA Hotfix against flame.
The svchost that has this problem controls this services:
svchost.exe
AeLookupSvc, CertPropSvc, gpsvc, IKEEXT, iphlpsvc, LanmanServer, MMCSS, ProfSvc, Schedule, SENS, SessionEnv, ShellHWDetection, Themes, Winmgmt
The server is now running since 2 Years without any problems and now it starts :/
After a restart this svchost.exe is using just 48MB RAM.
Thanks for any tips
JBABHi,
For troubleshooting purposes please reconfigure so that the services for this group run in their own process. To do this you may create a .cmd file using Notepad with the following contents:
sc config AeLookupSvc type= own
sc config Appinfo type= own
sc config AppMgmt type= own
sc config BITS type= own
sc config Browser type= own
sc config CertPropSvc type= own
sc config EapHost type= own
sc config gpsvc type= own
sc config hkmsvc type= own
sc config IKEEXT type= own
sc config iphlpsvc type= own
sc config LanmanServer type= own
sc config MMCSS type= own
sc config MSiSCSI type= own
sc config ProfSvc type= own
sc config RasAuto type= own
sc config RasMan type= own
sc config RemoteAccess type= own
sc config sacsvr type= own
sc config Schedule type= own
sc config SCPolicySvc type= own
sc config seclogon type= own
sc config SENS type= own
sc config SessionEnv type= own
sc config SharedAccess type= own
sc config ShellHWDetection type= own
sc config Themes type= own
sc config wercplsupport type= own
sc config Winmgmt type= own
sc config wuauserv type= own
After saving the file please double-click to apply the changes and then restart your server so that they will take effect.
After restarting your server please open task manager, select the Processes tab, and sort the display by the memory column so that the processes that are using the most memory will appear on top. When one of the services starts to use too much memory
you will be able to right-click on it and choose Go to Service(s) and you will know which service is misbehaving.
Thanks.

I note when using Yosemite (by the Activity Monitor) a very high use of RAM when I don't even have any chosen apps running. Why?
Hello Allan,
Many thanks for your response. I tried a few ways of copying to your response but this was the only way it seemed to work.

20% CPU load when idle, 27" iMac corei7 2,8Ghz
Hi every body
When I'm running Windows 7 Professional 64bit on Boot Camp 3.1, the system uses 20% CPU when idle.
I've tried to figure out what's causing the system load, and so far no luck. The task manager show these processes using CPU:
SYSTEM : 9%
DCPs : 6%
csrss.exe: 3%
Interrupts: 4%
The system is a fresh install, no programs installed, except Boot Camp. Even before I installed the Boot Camp drivers the CPU load was 20% when idle.
Has anyone had the same problem? And have you found a solution?

The system is a fresh install, no programs installed, except Boot Camp. Even before I installed the Boot Camp drivers the CPU load was 20% when idle.
If you have not booted into Windows, anything that happens under Mac OS X is something unrelated. In this case, it may be Spotlight indexing connected drives or some other background maintenance process. Leave the iMac running for a while and check to see if the CPU load is still 20%. -

how do i engage my 8 core mac pro to use all it's cores when using final cut pro and other applications that need processing power? at the moment they seem to be idle...
First, did you use Setup or Migration Assistant? That can happen when coming from a PowerMac or sometimes even from another (Intel) Mac.
Second, wait for the next version of Final Cut due very soon to ship (may have to wait for the ".1" of course to clean up any early issues.
Final Cut Pro - Wikipedia
There are a few apps that are better. I think you can run multiple instances of Handbrake for one.
I've read about and wanted to try PowerDirector 9 (Windows)

Each time you read a file from disk, whatever was read is cached by the system; when the file or program is no longer in use, the memory is marked free for the system to recover for other purposes but as long as it remains in memory the next time you need to access that disk information it's simply read from memory.
The more RAM, the more disk data is kept around and the faster your machine will operate until that memory needs to be recovered or you reboot (or otherwise flush the disk cache.)
