massive memory leakage on winxp
Posted: Sun Jul 28, 2002 11:58 pm
OS: WinXP
AIM+ version: 2.2.1
AIM version: 4.7.2480, but I've been able to reproduce it on other versions
Steps:
1) Open task manager, look at virtual memory usage of AIM process
2) IM someone, and watch virtual memory usage, it will jump by a few hundred K
3) Have a conversation, while watching virtual memory usage, it will slowly rise
4) Close the IM
Expected Results: virtual memory usage goes back to approximately what it was before you IMed someone.
Actual results: virtual memory usage drops by approximately 4K
I have actually had my AIM process use over 400 megabytes of virtual memory when leaving it open for about a week. Is anyone else seeing this?
