I am using TWM and yes it gobbles memory.

Disable/GC/Enable is indeed aomething do every once in a while.

No need for snapshots for this to occur.

A couple of Nautilus windows do the same.

Youcan close them all in TWM and still have them eat memory.

Do any of your (class/pool variable) singleton instances store data? add a #clearAll or #reset (mySingletonVar := nil) to the class side -- or whatever fits your app -- and do that before that #garbageCollect block. [In fact, put that in some XXXAdmin class]

Good Luck,
Cam

If you are using monticello that is.

Also close all windows, open a workspace and do the

Hi all,

The official image i've downloaded weighted about 40 MB. Now its size is about 200 MB. What is the explanation? Is this normal or have i done something wrong?

I haven't been using globals, just downloaded and defined some packages. The only over persistent thing i've done is to keep an instance variable in some classes i wanted to have a unique instance.


Best,
Laura
