7241 is leaking memory

Yeah, same here with 7241(opening and closing multiple projects). Will try to provide memory snapshots.

idem

Same here - I made the mistake of opening a test project alongside the main one, but when I closed it and did a 'make' on the main project, it was compiling for 10 mins (usually 1-2 mins) before I tried to cancel it. After a further 5 mins, it finally cancelled. When I tried to quit IDEA, it prompted me as usual, but when I hit 'Yes', it didn't exit, and just continued editing. After about 6 attempts (I was curious and didn't want to kill the process), it finally did quit.

i am getting this even with just one project open

I am on linux(Fedora Core 6)

memory consumption goes through the roof after a few minutes and a lot of basic features like ctrl-shft-F stop working.

Interestingly this did not happen yesterday when I first ran it. I have tried all the usual things like completely deleting the system directory, like removing plugins that cause exceptions.

actually my problem is on 7255 not 7241.

Hello Florian,

i am getting this even with just one project open

I am on linux(Fedora Core 6)

memory consumption goes through the roof after a few minutes and a lot
of basic features like ctrl-shft-F stop working.

Interestingly this did not happen yesterday when I first ran it. I
have tried all the usual things like completely deleting the system
directory, like removing plugins that cause exceptions.

First of all, please upgrade to 7255 which fixes a number of memory leaks.
If you still experience leaks, please take a memory snapshot and upload it
to ftp.intellij.net/.uploads

i have added the vmoption but can not start. I get the following output:

$ ./idea.sh
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not find agent library on the library path or in the local directory: yjpagent

is this not enough:

$ find | grep yjp
./lib/yjp-controller-api-redist.jar
./bin/libyjpagent.so

Hello Florian,

output:

/bin/libyjpagent.so

As far as I know, libyjpagent.so needs to be in the current directory when
you run idea.sh.
