View 8 RepliesOnce i allocate arrays is the memory allocated for them immediatlyy or once i add data to the array? like say i create an integer with 400 million arrays (lol) would visual basic allocate memory immediately for each of the 400 million arrays or once there is data allocated to one of the 400 million arrays, say when i put the number 4 in the 100th array.
View 1 RepliesIn the context of the CLR in .NET how is stack space allocated and what is it typically limited by? For example: Can any given thread continue to add to the stack until memory runs out? If not; how does the CLR decide how much space to allocate and can it change its mind?
PS: Just to put some context on it this all started from a discussion on how to build a method that will calculate the Fibonacci sequence and one of the suggestions was a recursive function.

I am pulling data in from a query, where three of the columns are being put into the same Listbox.Does anyone know of a sort statement to sort it alphabetically after inserting the data into a listbox, or would I be better putting the results of my query into three arrays and then putting them the arrays in, in the order I want them in.
View 2 RepliesI am working on a desktop application in VB.net 2005. The application contains a timer with an interval of 1 min. Each time the timer ticks, a set of functions gets executed, mostly database related.Initially the application runs fine. In processes(Task manager) the cpu usage goes to 100% every time the timer is invoked. But the timespan is around 1 sec(negligible).However as the time passes and after around 20 hours the time span of timer_tick increases to something like 20-30 secs. In this period cpu usage is 100% and the application does not responds. Gradually the time span of timer_tick increases to 1 min and the cpu uses gets stuck to 100% and the application does not responds.All objects are properly disposed. Moreover, this issue is with pentium 4 processors. The application runs fine on core 2 duo.[code]Many Select, Update and delete queries are performed in the timer.This problem occurs when I am using around 7000 records in database.

A couple of months ago, before I started learning C++, I made an application in VB.net that reads memory from an external program. This could be anything, from notepad to windows media player etc. I have been trying to find a way to do the exact same thing in C++, but to my suprise I can't find anything straightforward on the subject. All google comes up with is threads on several forums, where the general response is "Windows doesn't allow you to read from memory you do not own". But if it works in VB.net, it can work in C++ too.

I'm using VB.Net, and I have a set of data which I have to able to filter through fairly quickly.Basically, the program is like google sugest, but instead of a drop-down menu, I'm using a listbox. When a user enters a word, I compare the word using LINQ and filter those that contain the user's input. The data are all strings of variable length (from 0 to 200 characters, most on 150 character mark), and I have 240,000+ of this strings and counting- all stored in an XML file.
A colleague of mine told me that loading all of that to memory (using VB.Net's XML serializer plus collections of string/objects) is not practical, and would slow the 'startup' time of the program. I haven't finished building the program yet and I'm having second thoughts about continuing this path.
So, my question is: Should I continue with my current approach on the problem (which is load everything to memory on startup), or is there a better way of solving my dilemma?
screenshot application I am developing that has a memory leak somewhere. The main code is as follows:
Public
Class Form1
Dim strPath As String = "C:windows empscreenshot.jpg"
Private Sub Main()
[code].....
The application runs from the system tray and a clickevent handler for the notifyicon control calls the Main() sub. The code calls OutlookEmail() which creates a new outlook mail object. The problem is that each time the notifyicon in the system tray is clicked the memory in use jumps up incrementally - about 3mb each time.
I have a problem with a memory leak in a very large ASP.NET application. After about 24 hours of usage (sometimes a lot more) an OutOfMemory exception is thrown. Therefore I am trying to understand how managed memory works in .NET. When does an ASP.NET application throw an OutOfMemory exception? The server has a lot of RAM and there is always plenty of memory left when an OutOfMemory exception is thrown. I understand the difference between virtual memory and physical memory. How much memory does the W3WP process have to consume before an OutOfMemory exception is thrown? Is there a setting somewhere e.g. in the Machine.Config file? The ASP.NET process is never recycled.
View 2 Repliesis it possible to monitor my RAM-memory use of my application using a PerformanceCounter? If so, I've been looking around on the web, but my knowledge about memory isn't enough to understand what precisely I have to use

I am working on VB.net 2008 and sqlserver 2005. I have use very much of shared object so second time it memory allocation is less, but how i can reduce it when form is close or not in use. can i use Garbage collector or Dispose and how i use this functionality ?
I have an application that uses many forms and a couple of modules. One module modMain contains my subMain that starts the application. In subMain an instance of frmMainMenu (insFrmMainMenu) is created with a menubar. As the user selects an item from the menu bar, an instance of a specific form is created (for example insFrmViewCustomer). That instance is opened with the ShowDialog method. When the form insFrmViewCustomer is closed, a statement in insFrmMainMenu disposes the instance of insFrmViewCustomer. modMain also contains many public functions and subs, as well as public variables. The other modules contain public functions and subs.
So, What is loaded into memory when the application starts?
And Is there a tool within Visual Studio that tells me the answer to the first question?
I have a small-scale WPF application using VB.net as the code behind and I want to add certain features, but i'm concerned about performance.
1) My app interacts with a third party database to display "realtime" data to the user. My proposed method is to create a background worker to query a database every 30 seconds and display the data. I query about 2,000 records all long integer type, store them in a dataset, and then use LINQ to create subsets of observable collections which the WPF controls are bound to.
Is this too intensive? how much memory am i using for 2,000 records of long int? Is the background worker querying every 30 seconds too taxing? will it crash eventually? Will it interfere with the users other daily work (excel, email, etc)?
2) If an application is constantly reading/writing from text files can that somehow be a detriment to the user if they are doing day to day work? I want the app to read/write text files, but I don't want it to somehow interfere with something else the person is doing since this app will be more of a "run in the background check it when I need to" app.
3) Is there a way to quantify how taxing a certain block of code, variable storage, or data storage will be to the end user? What is acceptable?
4) I have several list(of t) that I use as "global" lists where I can hit them from any window in my application to display data. Is there a way to quantify how much memory these lists take up? The lists range from lists of integers to lists of variables with dozens of properties. Can I somehow quantify how taxing this is on the app or the end user?
I ran my console app succesfully 30 minutes ago. Added a single line to write a message out to the console, recompiled and now, when it runs, it eats up all the available memory before bombing out with an OutOfMemory exception! I can see the Memory Usage in Task Manager just rocketing up!
What on earth could be wrong? I can reboot the machines I am running this on as they are live servers.
I have an application which I've developed which queries Active Directory information and stores about 15 properties into a Datatable which is kept in memory. I need to decrease the amount of "Commit" memory it is setting aside. The application stays active in the system tray and allows for quick searching of information along with pictures for users. I have a class, which is able keep memory usage down pretty low. It runs on a timer every 10 seconds and listed below:
[Code]...
Does a the size of the class affect the memory usage of the application? is it better to break big classes into smaller classes or just group them up into one big class.
View 2 RepliesIn VB.NET, if I create a class it is a reference-type. But, if that class it chock full of value type properties, how is this handled? If the class is instantied but never filled, I suspect a pointed for to the heap is allocated. But is more space allocated on the stack for all of it's value type properties?

View 10 RepliesIm getting a problem with one of my programs I have made in visual basic.NET where it gives me a memory error when i debug the program in the IDE. the exact error is this: "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt". My program basically has a few forms with text fields on that get their text values from an access database on the same hard drive. Im wondering if im doing something wrong because my program just seems to eat up memory whenever it does anything. For example I have one form that has a combobox on it and when you change the drop down list selection it retreives a few strings from the database and puts them into the relevant text boxes, if you keep changing the selection then the memory usage (in task manager) just keeps going up and up. occasionally I get the error mentioned above when debugging but in my built version of the program it throws an exception everytime the memory usage gets past 49K.
Also I noticed when debugging in the "immediate window" frame I get the following message often:A first chance exception of type 'System. Invalid OperationException' occurred in System.Data.dll...Do I need to somehow be "releasing" the memory that is used to gather data once it becomes redundant?
I am using the following code
This error occurs :
Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
