Hi, I have been using MonetDB on windows for a while now, and I have consistent problems with all versions up to Nov2009 with memory handling. I don't know if it's because I'm running on Windows, or because I'm doing something wrong, or maybe the problem is in MonetDB, but I cannot work with Monet for long periods of time without routinely restarting the server to free up memory. It seems that over time, MonetDBs memory consumption goes up and up, and eventually when running a heavy query when there's not much memory left, the server crashes. If, however, I restart the server once in a while, all memory is freed, and I can work for longer periods without any problems. So it seems that Monet on Windows has a problem in freeing resources. Some recources are only cleaned on stopping the server. This is true both for COPY INTO operations and for querying. I would appreciate it if you could point out to me how I should approach this. Is this a problem in Monet? Is this because I'm running on Windows? If so, which files can I look into in order to look for problems? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/MonetDB---memory-issues-on-Windows-tp26808719p26808719...
