Re: Code Explorer Memory Leak

PSPad v5.02 (319). May be other versions.

I've been using this version of PSPad since bugs with Code Explorer for AutoHotkey were fixed. The program runs well for a while but eventually it issues a fatal error message (I always forget to write it down). I'm always able to save the latest changes before shutting down the program so no harm, no foul.

A few days ago I noticed that the program was using a huge amount of memory (900 MB+). I closed all of the files I was editing but there was no change to the amount of memory used. I closed PSPad and opened it back up and the program was using a normal amount of memory. On my computer, it's ~35 MB.

Today I think I tracked down the leak. It's Code Explorer. Every time I hit the "Refresh" button on the Code Explorer panel, the program eats up ~2 MB more of memory. Every time I save a file, the Code Explorer view is refreshed so for me, a Code Explorer refresh occurs many many times a day. Eventually something maxes out and a system error message is issued.

Anything you can do to fix this problem would be appreciated.

Thank you for report. I will try to investigate it.
