Tixati memory leak

by Puriel on 2016/04/15 07:20:56 PM    
I love everything about Tixati, is a solid torrent client but the memory leaks is just too much.

In this image the memory consumption is not even at its worst, after 12hs working I have seen it reach 1.6Gb.

what OS and tixati version are you running?

the amount of memory you are using does not seem high.

how many files are in tixati total? how many in other torrent client?

are you running channels and/or something in tixati that other client does not?

i notice your other client is 32bit and tixati is 64bit, i'm not sure but maybe 64bit programs use more memory.

Thanks for the response.

Answering your questions:

what OS and tixati version are you running?
-->Windows7 64

the amount of memory you are using does not seem high.
-->sometimes it goes up to 1.6gb and it doesnt comeback until I restart it

how many files are in tixati total? how many in other torrent client?
->around 15downloads and 5uploads

are you running channels and/or something in tixati that other client does not?
-->I have no idea what that might be or how to do it

i notice your other client is 32bit and tixati is 64bit, i'm not sure but maybe 64bit programs use more memory.
-->I dont know either. the Tixati Im using is the portable one. Do you know if it has memory leaks problems?

Thanks again for taking the time to respond to my post.

Cheers-

Picture was removed.
I can shed some light on my situation. I have hit about a gig of ram usage. Virtual ram goes higher.
But this was with 900 transfers, channels on, and therefore DHT on.
Alot of loaded transfers necessitates alot of peer info. And the various cache for the files to be downloaded.
This is not a "leak". According to somewhere I read, Tixati lets Windows clean up RAM usage every 3 minutes.

I notice the same. And its related to channels.
I have just tested it with completely reinstalling tixati, and repeating the situation.
Without channels activated, i average about 100MB of ram (50 seeds / 10 downloads)
with channels turned on and connecting, it rises to 1400 MB for the same transfer activity...

Channels depends on the number of them you join, AND how many shares you cache.
375K shares is about 400 MB dat files and 1.5 GB of RAM usage.

Sitting in about 10 mostly large channels...
close to 4 million shared links cached
Seeding 1900+ torrents (1450 on standby)
Audio streaming in channel
Active uploads throttled @ 1mB/s

RAM: 3GB
CPUsage: 15% of a 3GB Quad 64 bit
channel dat file ~ 1GB

Not any memory leaks I can see over long uptime

I haven't managed to run a thorough debug as of yet but my non-paged pool caps at 32GB (the amount of RAM I have) whenever I'm downloading a lot of files simultaneously.
