Dear Friends,
In course of developing my application I found something strange in the
gtk+-directfb.
Environment
~~~~~~~~~~~
1) gtk+-directfb-2.0.5
2) DirectFB-0.9.12
3) Pentium III
4) glib-2.0
5) 128 MB RAM etc
6) RedHat Linux 7.1
7) VISA Frame buffer
8) Intel i810 Chipset
I wrote a small application which was having 10 Buttons, If you press any
one it will pop up hai to you. I connected another PC through the serial
shell, so that I can see the memory usage and other activities of this
application. I ran my application in the machine and ran 'top' (Program to
view the process and memory status) on the serial shell (Other machine), I
was surprised to the see the memory usage when I just pressed 'TAB' key
continuously. I have not even pressed the button, I was simply pressing TAB
key 1 time per second. (I just pressed the TAB keys to find out wheather
the key traversing was ok)
The memory was getting increased by 16 bytes or more for every four TAB key
press. I also found that, even you use arrow keys to traverse the same
behaviors was happening.
Example
Let us say the application is consuming 1000 bytes when it was ran. For
every 4 key pressed for TAB Or Arrow it will become like the following 1004,
1020, 10036, etc..
This way if I press the key continuously for 5 minutes it may consuming
almost it may consume the half the memory. I don't find reason for consuming
the memory.
Please address this issue. And help me
Regards
RD
