I have a project in RB2006 R3 in which I'm concerned about memory usage.

It is a desktop app (Mac OS X only), but will be running on a server, hopefully for weeks or months at a time. It has a timer that fires every 30 seconds, and checks if there is anything to do (by checking the contents of a hotfolder, and also by querying a mySQL database which it does via an HTTP "POST" to a php page).

In watching its entries in the Activity Monitor, even when the timer is finding nothing to do, I note that its memory usage creeps up over time - on the order of one to several MB per day. I built a version using Mark Nutter's LeakCheck classes, and note that the object count is NOT increasing, and yet the memory usage seems to be.

Any suggestions or advice much appreciated.


It's certainly possible the that Rb framework code is leaking memory. That's harder to determine from within Rb.
