Huge memory consumption on Application Launch

Satya_6 — Tue, 17 Apr 2007 10:35:32 GMT

Hi,

I have an application with around 150 dlls developed on Windows and ported to UNIX using a software called MainWin. When I launch the application it consumes around 100-150 MB on all the platforms (Linux, Sun, IBM and windows), but on HP it consumes around 1.0GB!! This is almost making the application useless as I can't do much after that. After launching the application for other operations take almost the same memory as other platforms.

Can you please help resolving this issue

TIA
Satya

Hi,

I made some changes and I see some improvement in the memory consumption on application launch. I was using the LD_PRELOAD_ONCE env. variable to preload the java binaries. if I suppress that the memory consumed on application launch comes down by 3 times. Can anyone please suggest how LD_PRELOAD_ONCE affect the memory consumption, is there a workaround

TIA
