IE.au3

Ok well i have a simple script that does this

$o_editform = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "frmMessage")
        $o_subject = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_editform, "messagesubject")
        _IEFormElementSetValue ($o_subject, $subject)
        $o_mailbody = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_editform, "messagetext")
        _IEFormElementSetValue ($o_mailbody, $mailbody)
        $oSubmit = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "btnSubmit")
        _IEAction ($oSubmit, "click")
        _IELoadWait ($oIE)

as it runs it slowly adds 1MB to used RAM and it will keep going... I was testing to see if it would stop but it hit 2,000MB used (IEXPLORE.EXE)

is there something I'm doing wrong?

There must be more to the story... how is it that this runs for more than a couple of seconds? do you do that in a tight loop? What is $mailbody - the contents of your C: drive?

Its in a loop, and the contents come from the HD but are loaded into an array before the loop.

Maybe all of the code could clear up a few questions.... And in turn help you with an answer.

If you're reusing those object variables there is no reason for the memory usage to grow as a result of that code. You may still want to set them to 0 or "" when you are done with them however.

To help you beyond that you'll need to create a small reproducer and tell us what version of AutoIt you are running.
