Out of memory #1

Closed Rourke101 closed 4 years ago

Rourke101 commented 5 years ago

I am trying to read a 15GB mbox file. After the initial load it says "Out of memory". (Note - My computer has more than 20GB of free memory)

Hmm, that should work. The largest mbox archive file I tested was 9GB. Let me know which version you are running. Please remove .mboxview file corresponding to your archive file and try again. Is your mail file from Google or some other provider? When the mbox viewer starts parsing your mbox file, you should see the progress bar. Do you see out of memory immediately ? I did see out of memory in the past but it was due to the version mismatch of .mboxview file but I don't think this is what is happening in your case. Remove .mboxview file and let me know if that helps. And provide as many details as you can.

When you select one of the installed archive files for the first time, the mbox viewer will parse the archive and create MailArchiveFileName.mboxview index file. The size of the mboxview file should be much smaller than the corresponding mail file. Mbox viewer loads the index file into the memory to boost performance.

Created 18GB mail file by concatenating twice the same 9GB mbox mail file and parsed using mbox viewer v 1.0.3.0. Didn't see out of memory failure. Waiting for more details from you.,

Wondering if you did clone the master branch, build the mboxview and run. This may not always work since the master branch might be in unknown state. The projects doesn't have feature branches so you need to always checkout to the released tag and rebuild. May not be the best practice but I am the only active developer at the moment.

Resolved Out of Memory crash in v1.0.3.1. The second user reported the same issue. Worked with that user to resolve the issue. Appreciate if you could verify the fix running your large mail archive.

Complete list of enhancements is listed below. v 1.0.3.1
