Re: [wsjt-devel] Memory leak in 2.7.0 rc1?

Hi All,
It is the ADI file - WSJTX_Log.adi. Rename the file and watch the memory 
footprint shrink.
It went from 600MB to 110MB.
73,

Sam W2JDB

Re: [wsjt-devel] Memory leak in 2.7.0 rc1?

2023-05-26 Thread robert evans LAST_NAME via wsjt-devel
Once when using a microsoft C compiler
in windows 7 a memory leak appeared..

The person i was working with blamed it
on the fact that i was using pointers.

BUT

Once we reduced down to the minimum
code that produced the leak it contained no
pointers.

It was caused by only that compiler.

It was used to collect data on a lifetest
of 30 lasers over time.

We determined with the largest memory we
could install it would fail in 5 weeks.

So we said that once a month we needed to
take the system down to measure and calibrate
signal paths and detector drift.

Is it compiler dependent?

Re: [wsjt-devel] Memory leak in 2.7.0 rc1?

2023-05-26 Thread Black Michael via wsjt-devel
Turns out Task Manager shows different memory usage then the System Informer I 
use and also Process Explorer.

System Informer says 444MB but Task Manager says 44MB on a clean config (no rig 
selected or anything done).

Process Explorer shows 450MB.

So I don't believe Task Manager is correct at all.

In any case there's no memory leak -- just inaccurate memory reporting.

I don't see a memory leak -- but do see a large chunk of memory being 
used...over 400MB by both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows versions.  Others have 
mentioned this too.
330MB of that is the main wsjtx.exe program and not the DLLs.

I was able to compile a debug version and put a break point in main() and the 
memory was already in-use at the 1st line of main.

I've got an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X if that makes any difference.

Hi Björn,

I have not been able to reproduce anything like the behavior you 
describe.  For one example, I started WSJT-X in FT8 mode, monitoring a 
fairly busy 15 m band.  Memory usage reported by Windows TaskManager 
over the first ~5 hours looks like this:

  UTC  Memory
--
1930  97.1 MB
1950  99.5
2140  96.0
0105  94.2

So far, I have seen no evidence of any memory leak.

Hi Björn,

I have not been able to reproduce anything like the behavior you 
describe.  For one example, I started WSJT-X in FT8 mode, monitoring a 
fairly busy 15 m band.  Memory usage reported by Windows TaskManager 
over the first ~5 hours looks like this:


 UTC  Memory
--
1930  97.1 MB
1950  99.5
2140  96.0
0105  94.2

So far, I have seen no evidence of any memory leak.

90Mbyte. It seems random.

2.6.1 is always around 90Mbyte.

I am running Swedish Windows.

Does anyone else experience the same anomalies?

[wsjt-devel] Memory leak in 2.7.0 rc1?

2023-05-25 Thread Björn Ekelund via wsjt-devel
My RAM (8 Gbyte) fills up if I let rc1 run for a few days. It does not
happen with 2.6.1.

Interestingly enough the task manager does not show WSJT-X to be the
culprit but when
I stop it, up to 5Gbyte are freed up.

Also, sometimes rc1 allocates 630Mbyte of RAM when started. Other times
90Mbyte. It seems random.

2.6.1 is always around 90Mbyte.

I am running Swedish Windows.

Does anyone else experience the same anomalies?
