Base Memory size is zero for most apps in QMC apps section

[sebastiannord]

Hi,

Since May 2023 there is a column in the apps section in QMC called  "Base Memory size  (MB)". The value is however zero for most apps, even if they have been reloaded multiple times.

What is needed for calculating "Base Memory size (MB)" for all apps?

Any app modified by sa_scheduler is zero in our system. Not sure what that means.

Hi Everyone, 

We had a similar issue with the our Qlik environment. It seemed that a Table in our Repo had gotten corrupt which was responsible for showing these values. We had to use certain PG cleaning scripts to get it back to normal.

Rohan, how did you determine the corruption was the cause and where did you get the scripts?

[Rohan]

@Siciliani  Our Repo backup that was getting generated was of minimal size, hardly in a few kbs. Then later we when connected with Qlik Support, then we came to know about the corruption issue & the commands were shared by support team. They have a certain generic commands for such scenarios to do a clean up.

Regards,

Rohan.

As everybody is said the base memory app size is the when the app is reloaded from QMC.

Now I have some queries related to this as you can see below is the screenshot of my app and its respective base memory size before reloading from QMC, so its size is showing 571.23 MB

Now, I have edit the app and removed every script and just put exit script, removed every bookmark, sheets and all  as you can see below script, saved and reload its respective same task from QMC.

So, as people are saying base memory incudes bookmarks, visualization, data etc. then why it is still showing me base memory as  571.23 MB even after empty script, visualization etc. from the app.

??

Even though the doc says "the base memory size also includes visualizations, bookmarks, measures, etc, from the QVF file." I don't believe this is correct. I think the base memory size is only the tables and fields memory.

In your case, your exit script should have produced an app with no data model and therefore zero for size. I'm not sure why you don't see that reflected in the QMC. A page refresh issue perhaps?

Hey Rob,

Thanks for the clarification.

Even I was expecting the size should be zero, but not however I have tried refreshed qmc and clear cache memory as well.
