Hi :) Does anyone knows what to do with Mplayer orphants ? (how to avoid that situation)? This post-thread is connected with my last discussion about test.html. Moreover after 4-5hours of playing movies, the Firefox and Xorg is consuming to much memory (up to 200-300MB of memory ... 40-50% MEM/CPU) This is really strange and causes crash of the firefox (on early stage it make whole X based UI pretty slow..) Does situtation doesn't exist when mplayer isn't used (but I don't see direct connection between mplayerplug-in and X-org.. Maybe gtk?) Please help Zbigniew |

I don't know why it works, but it does seem to fix it. Could be a memory leak in mplayerplug-in. I know I have fixed some leaks in the past, but I'm not sure all of them are fixed and leaks would be reported in the firefox process space.

Orphants still exists and it doesn't depend on my Mplayer version. I've made compilation several times with different configure switchs. (SVN / stable binaries / old version) Currently my mplayerplug-in sources comes from CVS (in 100% pure).. and I've drop all my changes. So I assume, we stil have a bug somewhere (The orphants comes rarely) 2. I've check memory leaks (i've got some tools for it), and everythings looks fine. My problem with memory consumptions was founded, and fixed. :) It was connected with my "firebugs" plugin, which collects additional informations and grown up to 300MB. In current stage I am trying to make my application more stable, everything is working at this moment. Thanks Zbigniew |
