Exploding memory usage AFTER reload

Hi,

I have a relatively simple qvw I've been developing. I developed a few applications previously, and haven't encountered this issue before.

I'm using 64-bit, 11.2 SR9 Desktop.

I reload my file, and this successfully completes. After manual reload, Windows Task Manager shows QV memory usage sitting at around 700MB. However, after I click 'Close' on the reload dialog, memory usage climbs to approx 5GB (99% Physical Memory) and just sits there. I have to reset my dev machine.

The internal model is simple, no synthetic keys or circular references, and only consists of a few tables:

In terms of rows (this is the reload dialog after a successful reload before I hit 'close'):

Press 'Close' and boom. Within seconds my system is un-usable.

Anyone else come across this?

Thanks,

Rory.

Hi All,

I was being a numpty. Turns out it was a chart issue in my application that was causing the issue when it was refreshing immediately after the closure of the load. Put a calculation condition against the chart and everything was fine.

Thanks for the assistance everyone.

Does your document contain any chart objects or table boxes?

Does the same happen if you create a new document using the same load script?

Your problem could be the total of rows in tables. When you open Qlikview, all objects are calculatet and data are accessed. When you have a fact table, it works fine, but in your case, you have multiple facts tables doing your issue.

I recomend the simple test:

- Reduce the total or rows in tables: product, city, cfrooms, headers;

- Put the maximum of data in rqrooms fact table;

My guess is that you have inadvertently introduced a large synthetic key and are not seeing it because you have to crash the program. Try doing a limited load of 1 row and take a look at the data model.

I believe Rob is correct. I didn't read the issue about machine crash.

Are there any complex expressions involved in chart objects?
