[1.5f] Memory usage? [solved]

Post by RedBarom »

I don't know if it's been an issue in earlier versions, but I seem to have some kind of memory issue with the current release.
When starting the program it uses only a couple of MB's of memory.
When I do some racing (G27 + iRacing) it increases a bit to about 9 MB.

But since it's running all the time when I had a look at it earlier today (before I quit the program and restarted it), the memory usage was over 400 MB.
I think I remember it being even over 1 GB a while back when I noticed it the first time.

Is this a known issue / behavior of the program?

No, this isn't known at all, and not good! I'll definitely have a look at this. I presume you are talking Faneleds.exe memory usage and not Fanahardware.exe?

Yes FanaLEDs.exe, I didn't even notice there was another process to be honest.

Here's a screenshot from my taskmanager. Fanaleds has been running since the previous post, and I did a couple of sessions with iRacing today and yesterday.

I presume you've only been running iRacing on and off again?

Got an update on this. Apparantly there's a leak in the lib we're using to write to and read from XML files. I've got somewhat of a fix for it on it's way, which will solve it 99.99%. But the best solution is to ditch the lib entirely, which isn't a short term solution.

Expect an update soon.

Yes, the only sim I've played is iRacing.
