Memory leak in GUI on Windows caused by logging #4577
Comments
It could also be related to #3335. |
I've had memory usage issues with synergy for the past few years. Only thing I can do is completely uninstall it when I don't need it. Closing synergy itself does not clear the leaks, and the more uptime I have, the more they build up. The leaks are extremely hidden, they don't even show up in taskmgr. I can only see them in RamMap, with thousands of synergys.exe and syntool.exe processes running and taking 20K each. Note that this screenshot above was taken on a PC that hasn't even used synergy at all since boot, it was simply running in the background - with an uptime of 12 days. |

I have experienced this exact issue on Windows 10 running Synergy 1.10.1-stable-8941241e RampMap is showing me thousands of syntool.exe and synergys.exe instances all sitting at 28k the synergy log just keeps repeating the following lines:

I have experienced this exact issue on Windows 10 running Synergy 1.10.3-stable-ca35737a In addition I'm suffering from High cpu usage of System and WMI Provider Host processes with memory leakage. The issue continuously happens after turning on computer for about 2~3 days even though I didn't run the synergy program. Anyways I downloaded the latest synergy v. 1.11.1-stable-55ec3105. I will check what would happen. |
I'm running into the old handle leak on 1.11.1-stable-55ec3105 running on Windows 10.0.18362, synergyd hit 280k handles in just under 10 hours. |
Debugging Windows 10 memory issues with 32GB RAM and traced it back to synergys also via rammap. |
@digitalsanity we have fixed a number of memory leaks is 1.13.0, could you please test if the release candidate solves your problem? |
Hi All, I've just installed the latest version, 1.13.0. I attached pictures when I started test. |
@mazend thanks for the update! |
Here is another test result. I would confirm the memory issue I had experienced before was resolved. |
Thanks for the update! |
Issue seen in Synergy 1.7.1 running on a windows 7 enterprise 64bit synergy server connected to an 10.10.3 iMac synergy client.
The synergy service continues to allocate physical memory (private) but doesn't appear to free the memory resource. Resource monitor can track the usage:
The allocation appears related to switching from server to client and back. The problem appears worse when the switching back and forth is quick. (10 quick back and forth will consume more memory than slowly moving back and forth 10 times.)
