| | Could it be your plugins? Throw a memory usage check function into each of your plugins and then call it when this happens again. |

| I thought it's not caused by my script...I run garbage collection every 1 hour.
An obviously phenomenon is when I minimize the mushclient window, the memory consumption showed dramatically decreased from several hundreds M to 10+ M, and then increase fast again. So every 5 days, I had to close and restart my mushclient. | | Top |

| 1) Garbage collection runs on its own automatically.
2) Forcing garbage collection doesn't actually mean that a plugin isn't expanding. what does collectgarbage("count") return for each of them? |

| If a script allocates memory (eg. makes a miniwindow) and then doesn't de-allocate it, that can stay around forever.
You could try this:
|
|
Please provide a summary of your world configuration:
- Either use the scripting Immediate window (Ctrl+I) to execute: Debug ("summary")
or
- Install the Summary plugin (see
"Summary" feature) and type "summary"
Then copy the resulting information from the output window, and paste into a Forum message.
You need version 4.55 onwards of MUSHclient to do this.
|
See if there are more miniwindows (or something) than you expect. |

| Thanks Nick and Fiendish for your comments!
If there are no other guys met similar things,that should be my own problems.
I will try to debug this problem by myself first to observe the memory usage of all worlds and each plugin.If still no observation, I will post the Debug("summary") to this forum.
By the way, I don't use mini window, but one dummy world to print info., another dummy world for chat info., and 3 small plugins. | | Top |
