Memory leak with traffic display

Hi,

I just ran into a situation where after a prolonged time of use with live VATSIM traffic+ATC data displayed, Charts PC “application” started to consume significant CPU power (~40% on a 3800X according to task manager) and around 4.5GB RAM. Looks like a memory leak and a quite busy loop somewhere.

Let me know wether I can take any diagnostics when/if that happens again.

Best regards,
Daniel

Just enjoying the high memory usage again (but no CPU load):

Having the same issue here also.

I observed the same, especially a significant high CPU utilization when using VATSIM “Traffic” Option. “ATC” does not cause this high utilization.

Memory consumption does increase approx. 100 MB per 2 minutes.

Maybe, but it seems to need a trigger. My charts client is running now for an hour or so with live VATSIM traffic and still only around 20MB RAM used.


Maybe it’s due to heavy traffic

Around 20-35% CPU load.

Hi,

Thank you for the input. We’re looking at ways to optimize performance here. It doesn’t seem to be a memory leak but rather linked to the amount of traffic. We’ll see what we can do to improve this.

Regards,

Stephen
