memory leak in directxout TOP

Bugs

sorry guys I seem to be on a roll. Had to switch computers and started using the directx TOPs to transfer some video. I got side tracked with some update problems on the other machine and then a couple of hours later I received a windows warning that the machine using dx was running out of memory. Both touch instances were at 14.5 GB of CPU ram.

I was also using some sharedmem CHOPs. So I did a test on a couple of clean projects using sharedmem CHOPs, TOPs and directx in/outs. Sharedmem was fine (both CHOPs and TOPs) but once I added the dx TOPs both Touch instances memory usage in the task manager started climbing at about 3 MB/s

I’m pretty sure this isn’t with just build 20840 but also with a number of earlier and official builds. I had the same memory error this past winter a couple of times and never spent the time to figure out why.

Yes, its a known bug in the Nvidia drivers starting at 320.xx. No luck getting it fixed yet.

Cool, sharedmem is working fine especially since the fast upload feature was added. :slight_smile:

Smaller textures work pretty well (for monitoring)
