Some more information on this.
If I delete the Text counter object from the group that gets
exported the it will output many more images (once it actually
did all 500) before stopping. Doing this it will just continue
forever, e.g. Most of the time I don't get the error dialog and
mouseUp handler never exits.
I looked at the system activity monitor and found that 1.68 GB OUT
of my 2 GB was allocated to RunRev, so I guess it really is leaking!
Is that physical memory or virtual? On OS X I've seen seemingly
small apps take up a surprising amount of virtual memory, but
operate in a much smaller physical space.
Real Memory, I can watch free memory drop and get allocated to RunRev
until around 1.7 GB level then thing start to slow way down and I
either get the error dialog, RunRev hangs or it manages to finish ok.
When it does finish ok, if I run it again Free Memory continues to
shrink until it reaches the point where I get the error dialog or it
hangs. If I close the stack it still doesn't get de-allocated, the
only thing that appears to cause it to be de-allocated is quitting
RunRev.
Although FWIW I've not seen my Rev usage climb that high while
running these tests. Are there plugins or other stacks running
which may play a role here?
The only plug-in I have loaded is the stackFormat plugin, other than
that it's a Standard RunRev Install. I have tried it with the
stackFileVersion property set to 2.4 and 2.7.
I also tried storing the image into a variable instead of a file
and get the same problems.
Not sure what else to try? Would be interesting to find out why
it works on your system and not mine or Ian's. Anyone what to try
this on their system? Haven't tried this at all under Windows.
Thanks a lot and All the Best

Hi,
Mac OS X 10.4.8, MacBook Pro 2.16GHz Core Duo, 2GB RAM
Ok, are you using the standard RunRev IDE and not running
anything other that the standard RunRev stuff?
I did the test both in Rev with only the default installaton, and
in MetaCard loaded up with several megs of my own tools. Same good
result with each.
I set the fill color via the Property Inspector, not via a
script, not sure if that would make a difference. I have removed
all fill colors and I still get the error when writing file
number 289. I've also tried making the object/rectangle smaller,
still stops on file 289.
In theory it should make no difference, since the Inspector is
setting the same property I set in script. If anything, one might
expect the script to do a better job of exposing any issue with
that since it's working harder, setting the color over and over
with each iteration.
Unfortunately this week I'm up to my gills in client work, so I
won't be able to run another test on this. It may be helpful to
submit a test stack which reproduces the problem reliably on your
system to [EMAIL PROTECTED], so they can reproduce it there. With
their low-level debugging tools I'm sure that if they can reproduce
it they'll be able to fix it in short order.
Ok will do.
All the Best
Dave
