FPTag_BlobWritePartial memory usage
Hi,
For a certain type of data, we have to store lots (millions) of very small files.
We use FPTag_BlobWritePartial() to containerize files in bigger blobs.
We noticed that the memory usage of the program goes up until either it gets an "out of memory error" or FPClip_Close() is called at which point memory seems to be released by the SDK.
To confirm this we have a test program that stores 9-bytes long files. With this test program, we see a memory usage increase of 200 MBytes for 100,000 files. This is about 2 KBytes per file. This seems a lot.
Has anyone encountered this issue ? And what possible workarounds are there ?
3.2p5 SDK and Centrastar 4 (tests performed on the online clusters)
Best regards,
Didier
