Re: [PyMOL] Memory not released after load and delete of structure
The suspension of undo doesn't have any effect on my accumulation of GB when working with Hybrid PyMol...

Re: [PyMOL] Memory not released after load and delete of structure
Hi Thomas, thanks for the feedback. I would like to point out that I observe this with version PyMOL 1.3 (also Hybrid), where, correct me if I'm wrong, there is no undo feature available (at least I have never used or seen it here). To me this would mean, the problem has to be with something else (possibly in addition to undo). To perfectly reproduce my situation, you can run the script that I posted on pastebin (http://pastebin.com/mC6Rs6wk). Let me know if you need some guidance with all the variables, I'm sorry for the terrible code. I can also send you the PDB file I used when I got into this problem, then you dont need to adjust any variables.

Re: [PyMOL] Memory not released after load and delete of structure
I have the same problem since pymol 1.5, mainly with the hybrid (I can reach 10GB of ram memory with relatively small sessions). I'm on MAC OS 10.7.5 and pymol version 1.5.0.3.

Re: [PyMOL] Memory not released after load and delete of structure
I'll give it a try with the newer versions. I just checked, and I believe I'm doing some cleaning up. Sure, I posted the scripte on this pastebin: http://pastebin.com/mC6Rs6wk Sorry for the layout (all pretty in development). In production, the script is invoked from the "frag" function.

[PyMOL] Memory not released after load and delete of structure
Dear PyMOL users In a directory are PDB files of combined size equal to around 3MB. When I load all files into PyMOL, I observe that the required RAM of PyMOL (MacOS X 10.6) increases by roughly this amount. When I delete all objects, the RAM requirement remains the same and when I then reload all structures, the RAM requirement increases even further. I'm currently using PyMOL to batch process a number of files where a structure is loaded, modified and then deleted again from the objects list. This then results in RAM requirements of over 1GB and together with other applications, I run out of memory. Is there a way I can prevent PyMOL from behaving this way?
