Ubuntu :: Program Convert Consumes Most Of The Computer's Memory
Oct 5, 2010
I am using ubuntu 10.10 with gnome desktop on a desktop computer (pentium 4 cpu with 1 Gb memory), and when I use OpenOffice Impress, convert opens up and uses most of my cpu power. Even worse, after closing OpenOffice and all instances of nautilus, convert stays in memory and keeps using most of my cpu power (between 30 and 75 %, acccording to system monitor.Is it normal ? How could I set up my computer to limit convert cpu usage, and to unload from memory after being used.

My Ubuntu consumes too much memory. I have checked it with memstat and have found a lot of lines like these:

There are more than 480 lines like this! What are these fontconfigs for? Where do they come from?

Rhythmbox stalls my computer. I start it and within 10-20 seconds it starts to search something (i.e. in the right bottom there appears a box with a red box sliding left and right). It consumes all my memory (1 giga) and the only thing it does is identify text files in a general directory, NOT in Music. I have completely removed the install, installed it again, the same text files earlier IDed are still there? Is there an alternative?
Computer details: Intel dual core, Nvidia, 64 bit Lucid. The flaw is that it runs on single memory.

My computer has 4GB installed but for some reason I could only see the 2 of the 4. At first I thought that this was because the XEN virtual operating system manager was running but even after I turned it off the problem exists. I could only see and use the 2GB of memory.
Code:
free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1914 1874 39 0 9 295
-/+ buffers/cache: 1570 343
Swap: 2062 1934 128

I am having a php script which is used for bulk mailing. I run the script every minute through cron job. I have mentioned the path of the php script in a .sh file and execute the .sh file through cron job. Every time i run the script it utilizes high memory which results to server crash. how to restrict memory usage for that process to be a minimum one or how to set priority to be low for that process so that it is executed when there is no high priority jobs, so that the server runs normally without going down when the script runs

I've removed all the data I need from my windows partition (accessible via Linux SUSE's ability to see my windows drive) and would like to free up some space by essentially deleting the windows drive and adding that memory to my linux drive so I've more room to play with.

I'm almost positive I've seen a program that runs on Ubuntu that can convert PDF files to HTML but I can't remember where I saw it and I have no idea what the name of it was
It would also be great if I could find a program that can convert PDFs to .odt or .doc or another format that works well with [URL] but thats not something I need right now

I am running BWA (burrow-wheeler alignment) and, keep getting an error that there isn't enough memory allocated. How do I change the memory allocation? I'm working on a good quality desktop only a little over a year old, so having the memory shouldn't be the problem.

I remember that at one time there was a program to either convert a tar.gz to RPM or detect system changes, package them up and create an RPM.
Anyone know what this is/was? Is there something newer now?

My question here is that before installing the multilib libraries, how does a 32 bit program differ from a 64 bit. For instance, and here I am showing my ignorance, but surely if I download a program source, shouldn't the resultant binary following compiling and building be a result of the platform it is built on, or does the source code include references to whether it is a 32 or 64 bit program.
Only asking as I have just gone to Slack13_x64, and was hoping that wine might build as a 64bit program. Or, am I stuck with having to install the multilib libs?

Is there a way I can start a program and then record a log of how much memory it's using at a specific interval until the program ends?
I've tried writing a shell script but get the error: ./apps/mem-test.sh: line 4: [: too many arguments
Here's the non-working script:
Code:
$HOME/apps/ImageMagick/bin/convert -limit memory 64 -limit map 128 $HOME/SSI/davidkennardphotography/Img-Orig/95-Pole-Bank.jpg -set option:filter:filter Lanczos -set option:filter:blur 0.8 -resize 1024x720 $HOME/resizedImage.jpg &
GOODY="ps -p $! -o pid,%cpu,rss,cmd | grep convert >>test.txt"
[Code]....

I used dvgrab to pull the video off of my Cannon HV30 HDV camcorder. Now I have a bunch of 5 minute clips at about a gig each. I need to edit these together and use a better file type. What should I convert to, and what program should I use for encoding and editing?

i'm converting from w7 and before doing so made up a list of functions i wanted to be capable of doing in opensuse.i have most of them complete but saved the ones that gave me some problems or simply perplexed me until last.i managed to figure out ps3 media server, but still need to know how to automount my external usb drive upon boot.i have my vnc needs met with x11vnc and no probs there.
but what i'm not sure how to do is to synchronize my files between my three computers as well as how to backup my files to an offsite file service (perhaps datastorageunit). i've considered just using dropbox, which from what i've read will backup to offsite ( i used mozy on w7) as well as sync my files across my lan (goodsync handled my syncing). however, i really dont want to pay $10/mo. for 50gb of storage with dropbox when datastorageunit is only $3/mo for 100gb. datastorage unit says that rsync can be used however, even with the gui (grsync) installed i still couldn't make much head way. id rather not take the lazy/pricier way out with dropbox, but instead learn how to use grsync.

I wrote a bash script a few months ago and now I want to convert it to a C program. However, i used awk a lot in my script, and I don't know what to use in place of awk. The awk calls are simple, like string splitting and math, but I don't know of any replacement for the string splitting function. Are there any C libraries that include some sort of string splitting function?

I wanted to split adsl line, but a friend of mine explained that this isn't possible.. So now my question is that can you somehow switch ethernet back to dsl or have a computer convert it so that nothing has to be done to the other modem.

I have many video files that I'm trying to convert from *** to .mp4..Currently I'm using Handbrake which does a good job but getting it started is very tedious. In Handbrake I need to confirm and add to queue all of the files. When there are over 200 files at a time it takes way too long. If there is a way to not confirm all of the files please let me know.What program can I use to just add a folder and have it automatically add all of the files to my queue?

I am trying to run a simple perl program that requires getting stock price data from yahoo for just 1 ticker symbol, and it was running fine till this morning, wherein it froze and displayed the message: Out of memory!
I cleared my cache by running the following:
Code:
$sync
$sudo echo 1 |sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
$sudo echo 2 |sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
$sudo echo 3 |sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
but it hasn't helped.
Even Firefox has been freezing, so I basically cannot do anything on my computer.

I've read the threads here and on other forums and searched the web but haven't found a program to fit my desires.
I want to take some existing C source code that is both undocumented and uncommented (definitely not mine)and convert it into a flowchart or other format that is more easily understood.
I've run across many programs of this type for winblows but I don't want that OS on my system regardless of price!

Kindly let me know the Linux tool to find out the memory corruption in a program. The tool could be built for PPC as well.
