Testand Out of memory when running in loop

[ofer_o]

Hi:

Running several steps in my sequence in loop ( From pop up menu I choosed "Loop on Selected Steps"):

I got "Out of memory" error message after about 50 loops.

See attached files.

Some details:

Windows xp 32.

Testand 3.5

Labview 8.0

You need to include your sequence. We have no way of knowing what the issue could possibly be if you don't show what steps you're executing.

Here is the sequence.

Please tell me if you need anything else

Thanks,

Hi,

I have only had a quick look at your sequencefile and it's rather large and I am guessing that you are collecting a lot of results especially when running in a loop. From your initial statement you didn't say how many of the steps you had selected to run in a loop and at what level you were running from.

If you are not using On The Fly reporting, I would enable this and make ensure you have enabled conserve memory options.

Just want to add, you should disable results for any steps you don't really need them for. Result collection is the most common reason for running out of memory (results of steps are stored in memory until they are processed). Also if you logging any really large array parameters that might explain why you are running out of memory so quickly. Also Ray's suggestion of using on the fly reporting with the conserve memory option might help if you actually do need all the results.

Hope this helps,
