Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting force process to release memory Post 74096 by JKringen on Tuesday 7th of June 2005 07:19:00 PM

This is actually a known issue with the Macromedia Flash Player. We've been talking to there engineers about this and they acknowledge it but have no solution. So our only hope is to force that flash player's process to release it's un-used memory. The PC has a really nice command line utility to do this, but the mac has nothing it appears. I've even talked to apple directly and they were no help. So I'm hoping someone on here can tell me how to write an OS level script that do accomplish the same result of forcing an app. to release it's memory. Any ideas are great at this point. Thanks!
