I found two posts on stackoverflow that might add some details;

http://stackoverflow.com/a/35387564/2672173 Talking about a "design flaw" regarding memory management in AIR, that limits memory usage to about 1.25 Gb
and
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12554447/relationship-of-adobe-air-sdk-and-flex-sdk

with some information about the differences of the two offered SDK packages.

The content might be outdated, so if anybody at apache had an update, please le me/us know!

I downloaded the SDK from that site (and already the new Beta that came out yesterday).

But I downloaded the "Download AIR SDK for Flex Developers for Windows <https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashruntimes/air/pvt/AdobeAIRSDK.zip>" package. Is that a 32Bit version only?!?

There's no option to select 32 or 64 bit versions; or did I miss anything?

So far I ignored the "AIR SDK & Compiler" versions, since I'm making use of Flex.

I'm preferably using IntelliJ IDEA as IDE. Could I use the "SDL & Compiler" version also?

Sorry for that many stupid questions, but your remark sounds logical for me (I ran into that limit with Outlook at those 32 bit times ;-)

Thanks

The limit you're probably hitting is a 32 bit memory limit.

If you're _actually_ using AIR 25 for captive apps which is 64 bit for
windows then I doubt you'll hit any memory limit.

Check this page:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/air.html
and look for: Download AIR SDK & Compiler for Win 64 bit only
https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashruntimes/air/win64SDK/AIRSDK_Compiler.zip

Apologies for this not really Flex related question, but I'm sure there
are many experienced users around with knowledge of AIR specific topics. So
I wanted to give it a try...

When loading dozens of JPG images (compressed: ~ 2.5Mb, uncompressed ~
10Mb), my Flex/AIR application stops with the "out of memory error" once
about 1.6Gb of memory is used (data based on Scout).

This can be reproduced.

When I reduce the cache size my app is using for images. I can avoid that
error. But since I have no control about what the users of my app are
doing, I'd like to either find a way increasing the memory; or a clear
statement (with a link if possible) that there indeed is a limit. Also for
64 bit systems.

I run Flex 4.16 with AIR 25, but could reproduce this error with Flex 4.15 and AIR 25 also. Actually testing on a WIndows 10 64 sytem with 24GB of RAM.

If you have a suggestion for a better place posting my question, please
share (Adobe, SO, ...?)

Thanks

Hans
