What is heap memory on field point

What is heap memory on field point,
When I boot up my FP2000 it has the following memory:
Total memory 15955KB, Free mem 7784KB, Heap mem 30K,

How can I optimize this? I'm out of RAM!

Heap memory is memory that has already been allocated to the LabVIEW Engine but has not yet been used. There is very little that you can do to optimize the Heap Memory. Most optimizations will have to take place in your code and VI's. Using memory efficient techniques in your code can make a large difference. There are a number of articles on NI's website that talk about this. Also, disabling the web server (assuming that you are not using it), can save you a bit of RAM. This can be done from the RT Target: Options menu.
