ActionScript 3.0 :: Free RAM Memory During Slideshow?
Mar 21, 2012
the slideshow loads high resolution images (300-500 Kb) from folder with xml. Every time each slide is loaded and shown, the PC ram increase by 10 Mb!I used the commented lines and it works, the memory does not increase, but there are 2 other problem:
- the fade transition between the 2 images: the image in background is lost so that the transition is between white background and the image loaded at the top level (awful effect)
- in the image folder there is a swf too, before the commented code is was correctly loaded and shown.
Code:
function init():void {
slideTimer = new Timer(TIMER_DELAY);
slideTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, switchSlide);
[code]...

I've got this simple script (I left all original comments) that create a slideshow with timer (this is only part of the whole script), it manages the slides loading in the containers on the stage.The problem is that after each loaded slide the ram of the pc increase by 10 Mb! I tried to solve the problem using:
Code:
slideLoader.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fadeSlideIn);
slideLoader=null;
in the fadeSlideIn function or the same applied to the currentContainer, but without success.
Code:
// reference to the current slider container
var currentContainer:Sprite;
// slides holder[code].......

I am making a game. Whenever a level is created, a few large arrays are filled up with numbers. The memory usage is around 3mb. When I want to load a new level, I want to remove these arrays from memory and repopulate them with the data from a new level. But, no matter what I do, the game keeps on using up an extra ~3mb of memory each time I reload a level.
The arrays are not being removed from memory. I have tried setting every element of every array to null, I have tried setting the arrays themselves to null, I have tried using myarray.splice(0) to remove the elements from the array, but the memory is still not being freed.
Why would this be happening? The memory usage is not from movieclips, it is just arrays with numbers in them. And it seems to me like it is impossible to delete them.
Why would this be happening? How do I force flash to remove the arrays from memory

I have a very simple movie clip in my library with a linkage id of view. with a bmp in it 2000x760.I have a text field to which i'm outputting System.totalMemory via EnterFrame event.and two buttons one to attach the view and the other to remove it. Everything works fine and I am doing everything i know how to clean up after myself as far as the linked view goes when removing it which isn't much just removeChild and setting the ref to it to null.Now the issue is that when i run the swf either in ide or stand alone i get a memory jump when the clip is attached which is fine and great but when i remove the clip memory never gets freed >< I know this has to do with a greater CS issue with gc and all that, but How can i get memory free up with i remove the clip?Lastly I am runing System.gc() when i remove the clip (this can't be the answer? / its not doing anything)

I have a question how can I clear/free memory in flash? For example I am finishing game and I want to start from beginning and if I will just jump to the first frame all the objects there are still in this memory, is any possibility to force cleaning memory? Can I free memory for an object? for example I removeChild(something) - and I want to free memory for an object as I will reuse it? How the engine works?

The movie loads in an external image and refreshes it every second. What happens, though, is the previous image seems to stay in memory. Eventually the browser will hang, because the memory footprint of the flash movie is so large. Even while testing outside the browser, I can see the memory increase by a couple hundred KB every second. You can see it at [URL]
The code I'm using is below (don't make fun, I don't claim to be a programmer).
Code:
function refresh_url(event:TimerEvent){
var url:String = "http://www.live-photo.com/asheville-east.jpg?ID="+getTimer();
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

I'm having real problems with unloading external SWFs, I've spent 2 days looking for a solution and looking at this forum and using the code supplied and Flash help files and much much reading and trying, I still cannot achieve the desired results.I have a Menu.swf which hosts many buttons which loads External SWFs ... simple enough and fairly common.These External SWFs are the same size as the menu and so loads completely over the top of Menu.swf which is exactly what I want to happen.I have a button on these External SWFs which I want to, delete the External SWF from the Flash player's memory and remove all event listeners (which I guess will happen if the External SWF is deleted from memory)The reason why I want it to remove the movie completely from memory is that I have 18 items and by the time it loads the 18th item, the player is going slower then trying to swim in hummous.[code]

It's caused by memory leak. Every time a slide is shown, the memory usage increases a few hundred kB. I've tried everything I could come up with, but even if I kick a whole lot of movieclips out, disable basically all AS3 and let only one slide loop, the memory usage still increases everytime the slide is shown again.Of course it helped to make the movieclips simpler, but the main problem remains: if you keep running the slideshow, it will slow down.
edit 1: #&^%@! Even when i copy one of the slides to a completely new file, with no external classes whatsoever, the problem remains. I think I know now what goes wrong:I make the movieclip loop by saying this.gotoAndPlay(1);Frame 1 is empty, the slide placed on frame 2. If I'd put the slide on frame 1, the mc wouldn't begin at the start and there is no animation (and no memory increase) because the mc has ended.I already figured that maybe every time the mc is shown again, Flash casts a new instance. To prevent that, everytime a slide ends, I remove it with removeChild(clip). That has no effect however, so I think that's unnecessary.
edit 2: even when the MCs are constantly on the stage and are restarted with clip.gotoAndPlay(1), the memory usage keeps growing.

I have an FPS monitor running and notice that I am getting choppiness here and there, bringing my game from 40 to 27 fps and back and forth at certain stages. I have an idea of where it is happening, but do not know for sure. I looked up quite a few memory monitors but haven't found anything decent yet. Is there a memory monitor that allows you to see the memory leaked and find its location? If not, how about just he memory leaked?

I'm making an isometric game and I need to know which takes less memory for scrolling, making everything invisible that you can't see? Like if(!this.base.hitTest(worldHitter))this._visible = false; Or would it be better to remove the movieclips unseen and then reattach them when i should see them?

I have created a pie preloader(preloader.zip) which is working fine. Same preloader I am trying to incorporate in a xml based slideshow(slideshow.zip) to show image loading process but some how I got stuck. I am new to flash. Suggestions are welcome.
1. How to solve the problem of preloader2. Is it possible to integrate everything in a movie clip (including AS). I mean no AS on main time line but inside the movie clip. It would be much easier then to to create multiple slideshows by duplicating mc and changing the xml file.

I've just finished a free AS3 scroll bar class for those that think using the built in Flash components are too heavy or too stock looking. The class makes no use of images and draws everything out via code. Play around with the little demo to generate the look you want.
this seems to be a pretty solid build thus far. I don't have mouse wheel scrolling built in. Possibly for a future release.
