Re: RDP 8.5 eating memory

[Stuart Rowe <rowestu@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mike,

1. Dunno where the erorr log may be nor how to find it.
2. Mostly for RPGLE members.  C language will allocate a KB (but released
when closed).  CLP (CLLE) a few KB and NOT released upon  close.
3. Yes, turning off the auto-outline still does it, but to a lesser
degree.  The manual outline will bump up a couple of meg, and not release
it when the member is closed.  The auto-outline (for same member) will bump
up 30MB (approx 10x the normal outline) and not release it.

Must be something to do with all the outline data -- members with no
possibility of an outline (like C or TXT) seem to not allocate storage
forever, things that may have an outline do allocate LOTS of memory and
don't release it.
