A console application I am developing appears to chew up a bit of memory as it goes along, according to the "Mem usage" column in the Windows Task Manager. I got the following results from a 4000 second (elapsed time) run, which processed about 16,000 files.
Time Intel version MS Powerstation 4
Start 7200 k 5976 k
2000 sec7408 82572
40007704 224428
That's right, the MS version was using 224 MB near the end of the run !
So, the 500 k increase in the Intel Fortran version seems like a small amount. This program dynamically allocates only array at start-up, and everything else is static.
My questions are: What is causing this, and how do we eliminate the increases in usage.
