Re: Resource Leak

Hi Doug-

Whoa!  That's some leak.

A few months back I reported a problem I was seeing with running out of
memory. It has now escalated to become a show-stopping problem. I've
been doing some profiling to see where the resources are going.

I've attached a simple sample program that demonstrates one such case. I
make a Display, add a ScalarMap to it, then repeatedly setRange. When
using a DisplayImplJ3D the instance count of Object[] and many java3d
classes continues to grow. There is no such problem with the
DisplayImplJ2D. I know very little about java3d. I'm hoping there is
something VisAD can do to free up java3d resources and that this is not
a java3d bug that we have no control over.

Any ideas?


I modified your test slightly to add the display to a frame.
When I did this, my total memory useage stayed around 7 Mb
and I could see garbage collection running.

If I don't add the display to a frame, memory use shoots
through the roof.  I've attached the revised program and
a small memory monitor program.  If you pass in a parameter
to the MemoryTest, it will show the display, otherwise,
just the monitor.

I don't have time to track down the cause, but maybe this
will help Tom Rink or one of the other developers.  Thanks
for the test program.
