My latest update / feedback on the issue... I tried monitoring the memory on the Centos 6.2 system with top -p $(pgrep Xorg) and watching the %MEM. It was really interesting and informative... when I launched the application I was down at 1.5% MEM and as I did database queries and plots I saw it

Hey Glenn, My suggestion, while you're waiting to hear from support, would be to run your app with a tool like Valgrind. It could be you've found a leak in the engine, but you might just have a buggy dependency in your Centos distro. Valgrind output may give you some hints as to where. -- cb

Glen, I sincerely doubt that this is related to the version of Linux you are using. This sounds like a potential memory leak in your graphing functionality. Are you using native LiveCode or someone's plugin / stack? Tim On Apr 12, 2012, at 6:23 PM, Glen Bojsza wrote: Hello, I have
