Message 54843 - Posted: 11 Jul 2014, 21:54:23 UTC

Even though I have been using BOINC, for the past five years, it is only in the past month, that I find that I have been receiving the message - "Low On
Memory".

Even though I have un-ticked the box, in BOINC Manager (V7.2.42), "Leave Applications in Memory, when Suspended", I find that some of these processes are still running (seem to be the same ones), when I have closed BOINC down, by looking at my PC's processes.

A solution (that sometimes works), is to tick & un-tick this box, then save it and reopen it and to close it again, leaving it un-ticked.

Any solutions?

Without some basic information such as which projects you've got added, from which you have work and with what applications, your operating system and amount of memory in the computer, it's like reading tea leaves.

So please just post the first 30-40 lines of your BOINC start up messages, so we can get just that information, and add anything you can add.
