Garbage characters in FM9

[Roger Shuttleworth]

Hi Russ

Thanks for the tip. I don't have any plugins installed. I have TCS2, with FM 9.0 p250, but nothing else added. The measurements I mentioned were with no other TCS component running.

Hi Roger,
  
  If you decide to investigate, you might consider taking a look at any
  plugins you have installed. A single line of missing code from a
  third-party developer can cause memory to hemorrhage. Lord knows I've
  been guilty and still am occasionally.

  Hi Jack
  
  Nice to know I'm not the only one. I agree with you in suspecting it may
  be related to memory, though little do I know about such things.
  
  I've been watching FM memory use in the Task Manager.
  
  Beginning of day, one doc open: FrameMaker.exe is using 140000K.
  End of day, same doc open (after about 6 hours): it's using 407000K -
  not good on a 1GB machine.
  
  I wonder if that qualifies as a memory leak?

  I got the same sort of effect at one point with the same setup as 
   Alison's. In my case, it seemed to be a low memory problem, and it has 
   not recurred. FWIW, YMMV
