Tom Bednarz Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago I'm having an issue with Sonar still displaying high memory usage after closing a project. I have to reboot to "reset" the System Memory Usage displayed in the Sonar System Performance Meter. Attached is a screen shot including the Performance Meter after closing a project still showing 38% or about 28 GB. However, the Memory Usage for Sonar displayed in the Task Manager/Performance tab displays 7 GB related to this screen shot. Thoughts? Thanks!

Wookiee Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago @Tom Bednarz I suggest you report it to support@cakewalk.com, does it reset if you close and reopen Sonar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Bednarz Posted 15 hours ago Author Share Posted 15 hours ago Thanks for the reply. No, it does NOT reset when closing/opening Sonar. Just rebooting. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoens Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago Not sure if this is by design or has always been a bug but SONAR and CbB have always behaved similarly on my systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutrageProductions Posted 14 hours ago Share Posted 14 hours ago (edited) @Tom Bednarz I run sessions that will eat up to 80-90 Gb of my 128 available, but after flushing back to just the basic OS requirements leaves me with about 4.2Gb actually in use. I've found that NI Kontakt (et al), Spitfire, and UVI have a tendency to hang around in the Standby ram waiting for cocktails or the after party for some reason, so... {Some folks have an issue with, and will argue about my method, but I've been using it for 25+ years with zero issues:} DL "Rammap(dot)exe" and unzip it somewhere convenient. Create a batch file to open a CMD window and (with echo on, and a 2 second delay between each command) run the <Empty Standby List> & <Empty Working Sets> commands to flush the ram. Store the batch file somewhere convenient like the desktop and name it "Flush Ram(dot)bat" or something. I do this after and/or between each session. Works like a charm. It has never failed. Not even once. [Here's the batch file:] ::@echo off echo cd\{YOUR EXACT LOCATION OF RAMMAP} START rammap -Et timeout/t 2 /nobreak START rammap -Ew timeout/t 2 /nobreak Exit Edited 13 hours ago by OutrageProductions 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Stanton Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago (edited) yeah, rammap is one of many great tools in sysinternals originally created by Mark Russinovich from MS (not just a genius but also a really nice person). using the autostart as admin to cleanup all kinds of misc things that run on your machine, as well as rammap, process explorer, and many more you can keep your machine running clean as well as troubleshoot it. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/ Edited 2 hours ago by Glenn Stanton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
