Nutcracker is Exhausted
« on: December 14, 2012, »
I understand the feeling, but I thought I'd let you know about an issue I discovered.  It can be replicated by opening the Wizards in Winter project in the Voltorb account, and choosing the Stack effect only for Phrase 21 which is 19+ seconds in length.  I of course had other effects in my local project, but this step was failing every time.  It's OK with other effects in this slot.

I should note that I can generate this effect with the same length with no errors under the effects tab.

Unfortuntely, this is a memory error (it ran out of memory while generating the effect).  This means that the effect is just too darn big.  Kinda strange considering it is only 19+ seconds.  I will try to check it out and at least know the conditions that brought about this memory hog effect.

I was puzzled because I can generate the effect outside of projects for the same length with no problem.  Thanks Kurt!

i have modified project.php to disable timeouts and to increase the memory from 256 megs to 1 gig.

        set_time_limit(0);
   ini_set("memory_limit","1024M");


pull down another zip file for your localhost. also reinstall the database and give it another try.

kurt; pull in a new project.php before doing any other edits.

thanks

No change after downloading new zip, and applying database.  Http Daemon goes from about 25 meg to over 900 meg in one big jump after a minute or so of processing.  Tried this on several machines.
