Memory leak, memory growth?
Submitted by ilazarte on Monday, 27 February, 2006 - 07:30
I'm noticing in the heap monitor, even though JEdit starts at only a 4/5 mb value, it slow creeps up even if I'm not doing anything to as far as 12 MB. This may happen over the course of an hour or so. I've been restarting the prog when it gets that far to reclaim usage. Thankfully the restarts are pretty much instantenous Smiling

I'm using jEdit 4.2 final, with several plugins:
CssEditor 0.3
ErrorList 1.4
FTP 0.7.3
Jakarta Commons 0.4.4
Latest Version Check 1.5
LookAndFeel 1.1
QuickNotepad 4.2
SideKick 0.3.4
XML 0.13

Any way to avoid this? Should I be using 4.3 dev instead?
Whats the release plan? and how have I missed this great editor for so long? Smiling

i was editing a simple python file off and on for 7 hours, (i went to a movie during it), and after some more tinkering, i noticed jedit had run up to 25MB! unacceptable. what's going on? I ran the gc, and it bumped down to 17MB, but something is leaking somewhere.

anyone have any hints for troubleshooting?
What platform/OS and which version of java?

Memory creep has been seen on Mac OSX Jaguar and Panther (OK on Tiger) - so we need to know exactly which platform/OS and which version of java you are using Smiling
