Memory Leak with PixelCheckSum()

[sam007]

Hi guys,

so first of all sorry for my bad english.

Ok, let's head to the topic:

Im playing around at the moment with a script for a little flash game - since games give theier information to the user via visualisations, i need to respons to actions via checking if a pixelregion has changed or is still the same...

so the point is: i use the PixelChekSum function call very frequently - though i tried to enchance the performance by minimizing the checked areas, it seems like my frequent use of this function causes the FlashPlugin to crash in the IE 7.0 - ok i captured this malefunction and my script restarts it self - nut it takes about 5 minutes and it will allwasy crash after about 10 mins of running.

So as a ration of 5/10 mins is not quiet good, i was asking me, if there is a possibility to free the memory, which is allocated by every PixelCheckSum().

To give you an example:

When the script starts, the size of memory IE 7.0 allocates is about ~480MB in the taskmgr

After 10 minutes its about 1.200 MB .... and then i think the memory of the FlashPlugin is full an it crashes, what causes IE 7.0 to crash, which needs about 3 mins to "repair" and makes my hole system unstabel so that i need to constantly wait 5 mins after each crash

(my friend is playing the game as it was imagined to be played, and he does this about 8h without any crash)

actually i dont understand, why the memory of an autoit scritp should be allocated in the IE 7.0 its working with - but on the other side i dont really know anything about the way this is handled by autoit

So i thank you very much for each usefull suggestion you could give me on this problem

by the way, here is my system:

ok here you go - i'm sorry, but this phpCodebox just kills the formatation....

Use
        [ autoit ]
                tags

[sam007]

ok so i think, i just figured out, that AutoIt does not make the memory use grow that way - it seems to be an memory leak in the ActionScript of Flash of which the game is made.

So thx 4 your replies - this topic may be deleted
