Re: CF eating up RAM
Is 22MB a problem on your system? That doesn't sound bad to me. Does it plateau at 22MB at 18 days, or does it keep increasing? If it kept increasing, that would be a problem.

RE: CF eating up RAM
Make sure you're locking all your shared-scope variables. Writing code without properly locking on shared-scope variables can cause serious memory leaks in ColdFusion. If you're not familiar with this practice, I would suggest reading the following two articles. "ColdFusion Locking Best Practices" by Jim Schley http://www.allaire.com/handlers/index.cfm?id=17318&method=full "Locking in ColdFusion" by Ben Forta http://www.allaire.com/handlers/index.cfm?ID=17196&Method=Full 90% of the time I've been called in to address "RAM eating" behavior on a ColdFusion server, this is the primary contributor to the leaking behavior. -Tyson -Original Message- From: nyon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 17, 2001 9:48 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: CF eating up RAM Hi, I notice that the cold fusion service is slowly eating up my RAM.

CF will keep eating more and more RAM in version 4.5 and will never return it to the OS. However, the RAM is returned internally, so it can be used for other page requests. I don't think you should worry about this, unless you can't afford the 22 MB, in which case a RAM upgrade is probably easier than a CF upgrade.

Re: CF eating up RAM
Is 22 Megs bad?! CF doesn't give memory back. I know that is a broad statement but I know people of the like of Dave Watts could expound on this.
