Does 680 Blazer have its own 'cache size' setting? On my 700p in Blazer > Prefs > Advanced it's: "Set Memory Limit for Storing Pages". If that's carved out of dbcache then you're already managing (clearing) it. If not, its a separate cache concern.
The few resets I get often resemble yours -- too much activity fighting for control, e.g. web downloading when phone / SMS / calendar alarm / voicemail alert kick in with an immediate interrupt. If that's the case, I dunno the cure besides "do less @once" - which is no solution! ~d -----Original Message----- From: Jeffrey Kaplan On 25 Jun 2007 16:34:00 -0600 daniel said: > Since your Treo acts up +after+ using Blazer, while in other apps, I'm > thinking cache/memory. Any particular app seem to trigger it more than others? I haven't really noticed, but maybe the phone. The last time it happened, I had missed a call (never rang) and my voicemail indicator went off. I tried to call voicemail, and the Treo froze solid just as the it went from 'dialing' to 'Active'. (I almost lost the message, too.) > What's your cache size?

It's a 680, the DB Cache is ~24MB and typically never gets more than half full. Blazer was indeed already set to clear cache on exit. Hmm... could it be conflicting with my dbcache management? I have Reset Doctor configured to clear the dbcache if it drops below 10M free (I believe it check and clears when an app quits only). I use RLock to lock items that need to accept system notifications into the cache. I'll UNset that option in Blazer and see what happens. > I also set Backupman to clear dbcache after exit, and (maybe more > significantly) perform a soft-reset every night after backups, as preventive > maintenance.
