Memory leak (was: QUICK memory leak version)

[Jesse, Rich]

I'm not sure about other platforms, but Cognos' support site,
http://support.cognos.com, used to have the details on the fixes for each
version.  For some reason this morning, I'm not able to locate it.

I believe the problem is that as people back out of a linked QUICK screen,
the memory used in that screen may not be released.  As a result, the memory
usage for that session can grow very large.  We typically have users in the
afternoon with 10s of MB of resident memory and up to 130+MB of virtual.
Since our app is licensed for 150 concurrent users, we have 4GB of memory on
our 4-way K570 to compensate.  It was either that much memory, or plan a
recompile of our 1124 QUIZ, 1434 QUICK, and 572 QTP sources in varying
dependencies in order to get to 8.13.D2.  Cheaper to just add hardware.

Good luck!

Does this affect more the HP/UX?  If so, do you know where can I find the
details?

Thanks,
