I am
having frequent instances of my PC running out of memory and coming up with
messages about "Windows has run out of virtual memory and is increasing the page
file size" The hard disk goes crazy, the pc slows to a crawl and usually
the Windows session goes cuckoo after that, even exiting programs to lessen
memory use can take forever, and usually the best is to reboot. I
have tried to narrow it down - Firefox with lots of tabs? well I tried Opera
instead and IE7.
I have
no proof but my best guess so far is BDS 2006 with a project open
using Rave Reports - it only started happening after I used Rave in a few
projects. Projects without it I think are be OK. I am only
using the RvSystem component for code based reports, although it is quite large
- it adds some 800K to the program. Rebuild such a project a few times
over a few hours, and it seems the system runs out of memory. This is
without running the Rave printing at all - I am testing other stuff, also
using the debugger. Process explorer doesn't show any obvious
candidate. Or alternatively it could be any component with large memory
usage - Rave is the only one I use of such size. Or maybe the debugger is
another candidate (I often run programs with a few breakoints set to check some
variable values, thats pretty much all I do with it).
Anyone
else have any similar experience?
The
system is Windows XP SP2, 768MB Ram, over 2GB free disk, have defragmented
recently (it seems to help a lot), have sysinternals Processexplorer (thumbs
up).
