I seem to have a memory leak. I use Windows Task Manager to monitor memory usage. This program consumes memory as it runs. (It’s part of a larger program).

 

Suggestions?

 

from ti_image import *

from ti_draw import *

from math import *

from ti_system import *

from time import *

import gc

 

def my_time(t):

  gc.collect()

  h=str(t[3]//10)+str(t[3]%10)

  m=str(t[4]//10)+str(t[4]%10)

  s=str(t[5]//10)+str(t[5]%10)

  return h+" : "+m+" : "+s

 

 

background=(0,0,0)

white=(255,255,255)

ptime=0

while get_key() != "esc":

  # this loop only updates the time every second...

#  gc.collect()

  local=localtime()

  lt=local[5] # seconds

  if lt!=ptime:

    # update local time...

    set_color(0,0,0)

    fill_rect(0,195,318,30)

    set_color(255,255,255)

    draw_text(5,212,"Local time: "+my_time(local))

#    paint_buffer()

    ptime=lt

 

 

Be kind,

     John

After running for about a minute, the Memory jumps from around 400mb to over 1gb. Soon the software slows down and eventually fails to respond.

And memory is not released when the program ends.
