CS2: WindowsXP sp2: 2gb ram
I am having a problem with CS2 and memory management.
I use photoshop for automated image generation using scripting, and on CS2 after x iterations it will fail. I have only recently upgraded to CS2 from Photoshop 7, and PS7 does not have the same problem.
I have localized the problem down to the memory increase after loading an image. If I remove the scripting from the equation and just load PSD’s and close them, the memory creeps up… all memory is freed upon closing Photoshop.
Now, I understand that PS does not release memory immediatley but will head towards it’s maximum usage, and thus task manager memory usage can be misleading. However, setting the cache to 1 and the memory usage to 100mb on my 2gb machine… PS just smashes through that upper boundary and will keep on going until all memory is consumed and the machine becomes very unresponsive. Memory is only increasing with a PSD load.
I have tried re-installing, I have removed all the fonts from my system except standard windowsxp installed ones, turned font preview off, and tried PS on 3 other machines including a fresh OS install… all the same.
Any thoughts would be appreciated…
