hazelworker take all my RAM Sun Oct 07, 2012 8:46 am • by Vlad Ghitulescu
Hello!


Since yesterday's update to the version 3.0.13 (build 875) I experience some problems with the hazelworker-process: it takes ca. 2.6 GB RAM for itself and freezes due to this my whole iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running Mac OS X 10.8.2 with 4 GB RAM.

Do you have any idea?

Thanks!


Kind regards,
Vlad Ghitulescu

Please do the following:

- In Activity Monitor, note the PID.
- Do Sample Process and save that output.
- In Hazel, go to the "Info" section and click "View Log".
- In the search field, enter "[XXXX]" where XXXX is the PID you noted earlier. Save that output.
- Also in the "Info" section, click "Contact Support" and attach the outputs you saved above to the email message. Also, attach your rules.

Usually, it's the result of either a loop in the rules or overuse of "Run rules on folder contents" but I can't say until I see the above.
