Hi, I have always noticed this, have commented on it over the last 18 months or so since I first started with FG.... after about 2.5 hours fps dropped to <1fps and aircraft eventually crashed... I first noticed this on the PA28-161 as it was my aircraft of choice then latterly on the A10-2D...
I recently did a long haul using way points from NZWN-NZAA via NZPP, NZPM, NZNP, NZHN and the C172 held up for 3.5 hours...same problem ...low FPS and loss of control even on AP(waypoints)... ...hope this is helpful and not miss-leading. :-D ene >From: "Vivian Meazza" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: FlightGear developers discussions ><flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> >To: "'FlightGear developers discussions'" ><flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> >Subject: Re: [Flightgear-devel] Memory leak >Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2006 08:19:03 +0100 > > >Dave Perry > > > I have had lock-ups on longer X-C flights with the pa24-250 recently > > that could be from a memory leak.
