Out Of Memory - too many connections

klundberg

Lately, LinqPad v4.47.02 has experienced OutOfMemory exceptions immediately upon startup, making the program unusable. I presumed and later confirmed, that my 15 connections were the culprit. To remove them under Win7, I navigated to: C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\LINQPad\ and renamed ConnectionsV2.xml. No more memory exceptions. Of course, I have to recreate - then manage - my connections. Hope that helps someone else.

Are you able to provide any clues as to which connection(s) were causing the problem? The memory overhead per connection, when unopened, should be tiny.

Joe, I have the offending ConnectionsV2.xml file, so when I have a minute or two, I'll attempt to fine tune the failure, and let you know what I find. Thanks by the way for an awesome program!
