Wierd resource disposal?
-
Hi, i have written a program and i am experiencing a wierd problem with the memory usage... once i open the program it will keep on draing more memory, it will never stop :D if i minimize the program the memory will dispose(?) and the program will drop to about 2-5mb and start growing again... is it a bug in .net or did i not read something correctly? I thank everyone for intrest in the problem

Impossible to say without knowing what your program does.

well it does make alot of httpwebrequests, operate on alot of strings(retreive data from the response, alot of string.substring and string.indexof calls) i think it has something to do with one of these... ps. i noticed in a memory profiler that the program has 112k string instances...wtf?

i would also like to ask another question, can i somehow 'call' the Form.Minimize method without the 'visual' efects? :D i mean something like simulating the minimze method in order to free the memory? maybe someone knows what is called when the form is minimzed?

So if you do not minimize do you get a Sytem Out Of Memory Exception?

i myself didnt get to the no memory state but alot of users(esspecially the ones with low amount of memory, 128mb and below), they report that after a long period of time, usally over 24h their system 'hangs', 'freezes', so no - there is no exception thrown

Try closing the
HttpWebResponses after you finished retrieval of data and try to minimize use of SubString as each return value is a new string object. Maybe you can use regular expression to be more efficient but it depends on what exactly you are doing.

1. what do you mean by closing? 2. here is an example of what i am doing:
strX[i] = strX[i].Substring(strX[i].IndexOf("href="));
strX[i] = strX[i].Substring(strX[i].IndexOf("ht"));
strX[i] = strX[i].Replace("amp;", "");there is much more of this and this is in a
forloop with about 100 loops... so now i know how i got to 112k string objects... so can i do what i am doing in a better way?(i mean the substring issue) -

By closing I mean calling its Close method[^]. 2. As said before you may be able to get rid of some SubString calls by using regular expressions.
