Hi, this problem persists, although I don't think its anything to do with the sub-instance, it on both. In the last week I have removed and reinstalled Sierra twice, both times it rums great for a few days and the the problem comes back, and once started it seems to exponentially get worse quickly. I have noticed 2 similar issues on the support board this week: https://www.sierrachart.com/SupportBoard.php?ThreadID=71700 Extreme slowness and high CPU / RAM Usage What I have experienced is that once a slow closing and spike in CPU/ memory use occurs, it seems to be remembered and on the next occasion I open Sierra that huge memory usage is then the starting amount for Sierra. When I close the program I get another CPU & memory spike adding to the initial amount, which is then the starting amount the next time I open so its quickly increasing with every closing of the program. This is when it takes increasing longer to close the program with the not responding status. So when running smoothly, I rarely go above 100-200mb memory usage per instance, and everything opens/ closes quickly, but once this issue occurs Sierra memory allocation use quickly increases to high hundreds and then thousands as seen in the screenshots. This is without any chartbook loading on start-up. |
