Re: [Nuke-users] windows box seems unstable and memory hogging?! :(
We've been noticing a similar RAM eating problem when running 6.3v6 on CentOS5. As as soon as you open a curve editor with a few keyframes in it, Nuke unleashes a RAM pac-man that eats everything until it brings Nuke to the ground crashing it. I've contacted the support and they were looking into it. For now the solution here was to rollback to 6.2. diogo On Thu, Mar 29, 2012 at 4:46 AM, Peter Hartwig peter.hart...@gmail.comwrote: Hey All I have a quick question...

ah ok, 'glad' to hear it's not just us. we're on 6.3v2 here so maybe a rollback is the solution. pete On Thu, Mar 29, 2012 at 1:50 PM, Diogo Girondi diogogiro...@gmail.com wrote: We've been noticing a similar RAM eating problem when running 6.3v6 on CentOS5.

Hi, This should be done through support really, but there's an aggressive caching option that was added for 6.3 - it should be off by default but might be worth checking what it's set to in Preferences. Try selecting Clear Buffers from the Cache menu too. 6.3v7 also fixed Bug 23299, which meant that in certain situations on Linux, memory being used to render an image in the viewer wasn't always freed, so might be worth trying the latest and greatest and seeing if that makes any difference...

Re: [Nuke-users] windows box seems unstable and memory hogging?! :(
Same thing here regarding the cache settings but we've noticed that RAM usage peaks when you open the curve editor. And keeps peaking until Nuke crashes. Restarting Nuke temporarily fixes the issue of sluggishness though.

And keeps peaking until Nuke crashes. Restarting Nuke temporarily fixes the issue of sluggishness though.

I have aggressive caching on and off - and makes no discernible difference to solving the problem.

As as soon as you open a curve editor with a few keyframes in it, Nuke unleashes a RAM pac-man that eats everything until it brings Nuke to the ground crashing it. I've contacted the support and they were looking into it. For now the solution here was to rollback to 6.2. diogo On Thu, Mar 29, 2012 at 4:46 AM, Peter Hartwigpeter.hart...@gmail.com wrote: Hey All I have a quick question... I just got a new workstation at work, having used a macpro for ages, it was just not stable enough when doing 3d. The new machine is a windows 7, 4.2ghz i7 processor, 32gis of ram, nvidia gtx 580 graphics card and a 120gig ssd drive for cache, and of course 8gbit fibre to the san. It's REALLY fast. But it has a couple of wierd issues that i was thinking that someone on the list might have some solutions to... - It eats memory for breakfeast. Scripts that would run ok on the 16gig macpro now easily use 29-31 gigs of ram, slowing the machine to a halt. The scripts aren't that horrible so i can't imagine whats going on. - I've upgraded to the latest nvidia drivers, but i still get loads of artifacting, parts of windows freezing and such in the viewport. - It's REALLY fast, then wait... nothing happens for a few seconds, then it's really fast again. This can happen anywhere from once a minute to once an hour... I read files from the san and cache on the local ssd drive. Any takers?
