I have the following function: void CGlEngineFunctions::GetBezierOpposite( const POINTFLOAT &a,const POINTFLOAT &center, POINTFLOAT &b, float blength ) { POINTFLOAT v; v.x = a.x - center.x; v.y = a.y - center.y; float alength = GetDistance(a,center); if(blength == 0) { blength = alength; } fl...

htmlParse() segfault error in R XML package: 'memory not mapped'

I am using R 2.11.1 and XML package 3.1-0, and I was going through an example from R2GoogleMaps when I encountered a segfault error. #library(RJSONIO) library(R2GoogleMaps) library(XML) #library(RCurl) load("b.rda") # find in the sampleDocs folder in source file of R2GoogleMaps center = c(mean(range(b$lat)), mean(range(b$long))) code ...

Simple question on releasing allocated memory

Hi, in several example codes one can find this static NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter = nil; if (numberFormatter == nil) { numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init]; [numberFormatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterDecimalStyle]; [numberFormatter setMaximumFractionDigits:6]; } Isn't that code producing memory ...

iPhone Memory warning level=2

Hi Forum I have an app that stacks quite a nice amount of views on top of each other. At some point I receive a Memory warning level2 (which is kind of expected). The thing is, when I run Instruments, I don't have any memory leaks and the app takes up something like 9-10MBs... which is not that much, I'd say? Question is: how much me...

PHP Garbage collection sucks or is it just me?

Hello all, I have the function below which I call very frequently in a loop. I waited 5 minutes as the memory climbed up from 1MB to 156MB. Should't PHP's garabage collector turn up and reduce this at some point?! Is it because I have set memory limit at 256MB? At echo point 2,3,4 its pretty constant memory usage. It goes down my hal...

C# WebClient Memory Usage

Hello, I am using WebClient,DownloadString("http://example.com/string.txt"); When I call it the memory jumps up, but never goes down again, and since I need 2-3 different strings downloaded from the web the memory jumps up quite much. I am new to C# and still learning, but is there anyway to clear the memory after I have downloaded the...

NSXMLParser memory leak on ios 4.0 - **NOT** NSCFString

Hello, I'm getting a weird leak in my NSXMLParser after it's done and released from memory. It comes up with NSMapTable alloc leak. Here's my stack: 0 libSystem.B.dylib calloc 1 libobjc.A.dylib _internal_class_createInstanceFromZone 2 libobjc.A.dylib class_createInstance 3 Foundation NSAllocateObject 4 Foundation +[NSM...

How much "overhead" memory does JDOM need to generate XML files?

I need to use JDOM to generate XML files, which could be pretty big. I'm wondering how much additional memory space JDOM needs other than the data, mainly strings, that is already in the memory. I wrote a simple program to test and it turned out that the overhead is about twice as much as the XML content. Does anybody know why JDOM need...

sqlbulkcopy mem. management

I'm using SQLBULKCOPY to copy some data-tables into a database table, however, because the size of the files I'm copying run sometimes in excess of 600mb, I keep running out of memory. I'm hoping to get some advice about managing the table size before I commit it to the database so I can free up some memory to continue writing. Here ar...

Can invalid thread handles in C# be a sign of unmanaged memory corruption?

We have a C# service that has started failing in very odd ways around thread handles. Specifically calls to EventWaitHandle.Reset, ReaderWriterLock calls, and other similar threading calls are randomly blowing up with Invalid Handle errors deep in the stack. These are calls that are definately supposed to work. Could this be a sign of me...

iPhone images still stored in memory?

So I have several viewControllers, each creates images using "imageWithContentsOfFile" in order to conserve memory and then sets objects to nil and releases them in the dealloc method. There are no memory leaks. The problem is memory still builds up when switching views. So for example I'll be in view1 and it'll be using 8MB of memory an...

Help removing items from a text file using python

After implementing some of the solutions in my previous question, I've come up with the following solution: reader = open('C://text.txt') writer = open('C://nona.txt', 'w') counter = 1 names, nums = [], [] row = reader.read().split(' ') x = len(row)/2 for (a, b) in [(c, d) for c, d in zip(row[:x], row[x:]) if d!='na']: prin...

How do qubits work and what are their pros and cons? What impact will they have on programming languages?

What can we do more with qubits than normal bits, and how do they work? I read about them some time ago, and it appears that qubits can store not just 0 or 1, but also 0 and 1 at the same time. I don't really understand how they work. Can someone please explain this to me? What are their pros and cons, and what impact will they have on ...

JNI_ENOMEM from JNI_CreateJavaVM when calling dll that uses JNI from VB6

I work on a legacy system that has a VB6 app that needs to call Java code. The solution we use is to have the VB app call a C++ dll that uses JNI to call the Java code. A bit funky, but it's actually worked pretty well. However, I'm moving to a new dev box, and I've just run into a serious problem with this. The built VB app works fi...

Handling large datasets in Java/Clojure: littleBig data

I've been working on a graphing/data processing application (you can see a screenshot here) using Clojure (though, oftentimes, it feels like I'm using more Java than Clojure), and have started testing my application with bigger datasets. I have no problem with around 100k points, but when I start getting higher than that, I run into heap...
