Hi to all!
Currently I am facing with several problems related to memory leak using NI TestStand 2019 32-bits. Every time that I run tests on Windows 10, the TestStand IDE crashes (shutdown abruptly) due to lack of memory reserved to the "SeqEdit.exe" executable by the operational system. But this behaviour it is occuring just in a few computers, I have another computers running Windows 10 without any problem.
According to this article "Memory Limits of TestStand Systems" , the amount of memory available for running TestStand 32-bits IDE on Windows 64-bits is up to 2 GB, where it can be extended for up to 4 GB. This limit can be increased by setting the Large Address Aware flag for the process. In case of TestStand 32-bits 2019 IDE, it is already configured by default.
When I open the workspace (.tsw) of my project, I notice that the memory spent by the "SeqEdit.exe" was very high when compared with another computers, even open the same project. In this case, the memory spent when I finish to load all code modules into memory is more than 1GB, and during the execution, after some cycles, the memory reaches more than 3GB, and then, reaches the 4GB and the "SeqEdit.exe" is shutdown abruptly.
I have notice another strange behaviour too, even if I kill the "SeqEdit.exe" process by "Task Manager" or by "command line", using the "Performance Monitor" to monitor the 'SeqEdit.exe", I can see that this process is never being wiped from memory.
My question is, there is any issue known about this kind of behavour? If yes, there is any workaround to make this memory leak dissapears?
Thanks!
My best regards,
