Hi there,
i'm back again, tracking my memory consumption. I realized that i was unable to
get my
Canvas3D finalized. Since it occupies around 4 MB in the VM i had the idea of
recycling it.
This is very crucial for my application, since it is enbeded in an applet in
some browser.
Clicking reload 10 times would result in a loss of memory of 40MB (not so nice).
Finally my applet can be reloaded as offen as i want without messing up memory.
At least,
not the VM heap memory. It uses around 9 MB while the heapsize is 30MB,
constantly.
But when tracking the browsers memory usage. I still realize a increasing
allocated memory size
every reload ( of around 3MB ~ the size of my scene, i presume ).
At first sight i was afraid the native code produces some leaks. But sometime
the VM
increased heapsize by 10MB and decreased it by 10MB again, shortly afterwards.
The result was that my netscape memory usage increased by 10MB and never went
down again.
My conclusion is:
Every time the VM allocated additional memory the application memory increases.
When the VM releases memory the browser ignores it; resulting in a memory leak.
Has anybody any clue concerning this!!!
Any comment appreciated.
I can reproduce this without the use of any browser using the appletviewer of my
jbuilder.
I try to cleanup everything when a stop applet occurs, and recreate the view
when start applet
is invoked.
Cheers,
Karsten
