Hi Tom, Does hasMemory() have any effect on available memory, or does it truly just report the state of things? I wonder if there is some shell command that might help? Phil Davis On 1/16/21 11:31 AM, Tom Glod via use-livecode wrote: Hi Folks, I'm finding my application does a nice job

Is there a way to manually trigger GC?

2021-01-16 Thread Tom Glod via use-livecode
Hi Folks, I'm finding my application does a nice job to unload data from memory, but it takes a while for that to happen. When the initial load of the application occurs, the memory consumption is quite high if there is lots of data to be loaded (1 GB+). But after a while, the used ram drops

Printing borked for LC Linux?

I've been printing almost exclusively to PDF for the last several years, but this morning I wanted to print to actual paper, and found that LC doesn't print from Ubuntu. There's nothing in the result after the print command, so LC thinks it's doing fine. And I can print from any other app

Hi Sannyasin, Two suggestions. Could you build a small test stack to test your idea and refine it? Not sure of your hardware, but that might be faster to load than a larger, more complicated application. Also, the simulator might be another possible option to speed things up while testing?
