Memory Leak

[Overbryd]

Hy,

I have been running Jenx for about a month now. During that time I never really shutdown my Mac, I have always suspended it.
Today I was looking through Activity Monitor, and I saw Jenx consuming >4.5GB of real memory.

If I can be of any help investigating this issue > please tell me how I can help you.
I really like Jenx and I am happily using it since I have installed it.

Kind regards,

Lukas

Hey man,

Thanks for giving us a heads up. We will look into this. If you happen to see the issue we will happily take a pull request. I will keep this open until the issue is ironed out. 

Cheers!

If you notice that again, it would be super useful if you could run the vmmap command on the Jenx process.

Analyzing memory usage can be tricky and misleading if you don't examine the details. For example, see http://marc-abramowitz.com/archives/2011/12/07/dont-be-alarmed-by-super-large-vsize-on-os-x/ - this is a posting of mine that was motivated by me also being alarmed by the memory usage of Jenx.

Here is the output of vmmap Jenx

I am just getting around to replying to some of these. I am rewriting Jenx in Objective-C currently. Trying to get it done in a timely manner. The rewritten version will be much more performant.
