Possible Memory leak during backup

[James108]

I did a backup today to test

During the backup I got a memory low error on Windows ( I have 32 GB) which basically never happens

the task manager showed the NT8 was using 14 GB of memory during the backup, is this normal or should the memory used be limited in some way?.

the db folder in NT8 was about 44GB it included a folder with old market replay data that had its replay directory renamed

I removed the folder with the old data out of the db folder ( reduced the size to 24GB) and retried, I still got the memory low error NT8 consumed about 15 GB of memory

Is this bug?

I've noticed memory growth whenever invoking Reloading Ninjascript. It's behaving as if whatever heap was allocated prior to the reload, is not being garbage collected; however closing the workspace and reopening it forces the collection.

Hello CriticalTrader,

Garbage Collection in .NET cannot be forced without a restart of the platform in general.
