Hi Stefan and Andreas, Thank you very much for your responses. It appears that the factor of 7 in memory consumption under IE compared to Firefox in my application is not caused by a memory leak, and therefore I will find no relief with qooxdoo 0.7.4 . Unfortunately I cannot make a similar qoo

Hi all, as some of us are currently on vacation we, the RAP team, are quite low on resources. We will be able to investigate incorporating the memory leak patches within the next two weeks, including the one not yet in qx SVN (http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1382). If they prove ap

Hi Alex! > Are there any plans to make a qooxdoo 0.7.4 release soon? Plans are to have a maintenance release 0.7.4 in Q4/2008, see http://qooxdoo.org/about/roadmap . But that might not be relevant for the problems with your RAP application. According to the comments at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bu

Hi Stefan, My application consumes a lot of memory because it allocates a very large number of widgets. The critical structure is some sort of table where each element is a very complex widget with several labels and subpanels. My table has 100 of such widgets. Each one of them may be further

IE uses more memory than all other browsers. For a typical application I'd expect around 50-150MB on IE (but not rising). Just open some of the qooxdoo-demo-apps and compare them in different browsers. You won't fall below that with RAP - but you won't fall below that with any other sophistic

Hi Stefan, Thanks for your responses so far. I'm not only concerned with the memory leaks of qooxdoo 0.7.3, but also with the much larger memory footprint under IE compared to Firefox. My application takes up a lot of memory under IE even without repeatedly allocating/deallocating objects. Do

Alex, The following todo still needs to be done on the qooxdoo 0.7.x branch, before it doesn't leak anymore (though also in the current 0.7.x-branch-head huge improvements on memory-consumptions were done already): http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1382 On the RAP side you can hav
