Yes, I've been eyeing it and playing with it.  It's been changing a bit,
and I wanted to let Phillip and Ty settle it down before I moved my major

I've seen these gadfly references ever since I started looking at
the manage_debug screen.  My Data.fs also has no extra products installed.
If something is reaching into Gadfly, it is something that ships with Zope.

By the way, my site is structured into a series of folders, so that
no folder has more than about 50 objects in it, with the exception
(of course ) of the most heavily modified folder, which has
about 120 objects.  But I'm still seeing this growing-memory-usage
pattern.

However, the memory usage does grow pretty much just when a large
number of objects get updated, usually in many different folders.
So if there is a Python garbage collection issue, I think that
would probably explain my case, at least.

It seems incredible that Python garbage collection would be broken,
but I suppose Zope *is* one of the most intensive programs
running in python, so if anyone is going to see it it is going
to be our community.

Jason, I don't know if you've taken much of a look at ZPatterns yet...
Depending on how your code is set up, it may actually not be that difficult
for you to move some of those big Folders into Racks in Specialists. Phillip
mentioned the other day that this could help, and I think I spotted a BTree
in the Rack code yesterday, which would explain how Racks help. I'm not sure
where the rumored BTreeFolder code stands, which would be a more immediate
drop in fix.

It didn't look to me like Specialists were too difficult to work with,
though.

It would really put a damper on things if is wasn't.  However, when I
stopped my Zope process each time, it didn't seem to give me back what 
Ihad started with.  Maybe there is a leak in the kernel I am using.  It's
2.2.12-smp.  Anyone?

That's a big relief.  Okay, now we know that this isn't a memory leak,
it's only related to the fact that your site requires ZODB to load a
very large number of objects into memory in order to perform normal
operations.

Here's something to think about: whenever an object is added to or
removed from a folder, all objects in all neighboring folders and below
are traversed.  The manage_beforeDelete and manage_afterAdd hooks are
called on each object.

Also, there is still the issue that Python doesn't seem to be releasing
memory back to the system.  I wonder whether that capability has been
implemented in Python.

Chances are some other product is "reaching in" to Gadfly.  Do you have
the Zope tutorial installed?  It uses Gadfly.

What the heck is that about?  Anyone?

Thing's seem to be a bit nicer now that I took out an External Method that
returns a DateTime object the Catalog for Indexing.  However, there's only
about 14,000 of objects with that property in existsnce in my DB, and they
don't change often.

Here's the code:

def calendar_day(self)

I'm *very* interested in this.

I have a similar setup (stock 2.1.4 + the Lexicon.py patch, no
external database, no non-bundled Products, custom CatalogAware
ZClass, large number of objects (~60,000).  I'm running under
FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE.

I tried the 'minimize' trick and got down to around 200 objects,
with *no* decrease in memory used.  I'm not leaking memory as fast
as you, but over time memory usage does go up until swapping starts
and I'm forced to restart Zope.

Also as (apparently) with you, manage_debug does *not* give
any clues as to what is taking the memory; everything in the list
looks normal and does not add up to the observed memory usage
as far as I can guess.

I'm glad to see someone else is observing this memory weirdness,
I thought I was the only one.

Yep. That's why I have the machine I do, though.

No.  After the 'minimize' I now have 15501 objects in cache combined.  And
the free command shows less memory than before the minimize command.
As Wyle E. Coyote would say...Yipe. :o

It's so weird.  Even though there is really no one on it that memory is
just flying out the window.

How would I tell if they get unloaded?  I am new to the manage_debug BTW.
I set the Cache Parameters target time between accesses to 3.  What am I
looking for number-wise?

Since you say you are not using any DA's, the culprit must be
ZCatalog.  What happens when you minimize the memory cache (setting the
limit to 3 seconds)?  Do the OIBTree.Bucket objects get unloaded?

Re: [Zope-dev] Zope 2.1.6 Memory issue

2000-05-22 Thread Shane Hathaway

Jason,

Try /Control_Panel/manage_debug ... it will tell you exactly which
kinds of objects are eating memory.  Take a "snapshot" then refresh the
page after a couple of minutes, and the table should list at the top
the name of the class that's taking up more than its fair share.
