Today it happened again to me. I'm writing from an Emacs session using
more than 5 GB of memory. I've started it some hours ago and have no
clue why today had been special. I didn't do anything exceptional.
Here is output from memory-usage:
Garbage collection stats:
((conses 16 2645730 3784206) (symbols 48 68678 724) (strings 32 528858 451889) (string-bytes 1 18127696) (vectors 16 213184) (vector-slots 8 3704641 2189052) (floats 8 2842 5514) (intervals 56 264780 87057) (buffers 992 119))
=> 40.4MB (+ 57.7MB dead) in conses
3.14MB (+ 33.9kB dead) in symbols
16.1MB (+ 13.8MB dead) in strings
17.3MB in string-bytes
3.25MB in vectors
28.3MB (+ 16.7MB dead) in vector-slots
22.2kB (+ 43.1kB dead) in floats
14.1MB (+ 4.65MB dead) in intervals
115kB in buffers
Total in lisp objects: 216MB (live 123MB, dead 93.0MB)
Buffer ralloc memory usage:
119 buffers
16.1MB total (1.71MB in gaps)
Anything I can do to find out more? I dunno how long I can keep this
session open. Tried `clear-image-cache', it does not release any
memory.
Michael.
