Dispatcher: Out of Memory – Too high rate of messages?

[Hans Brand]

Hi Ray,

My client experienced a few ‘Out of Memory’ Pop-ups from the Dispatcher.

Today I received the *.csl files to have a look at and I did notice something.

The logging files are restricted to 10Mbytes, if larger then I start a new file.
Usually, the last entry in the file has the same timestamp as the file itself, which makes sense.
But now I noticed that gradually the timestamp of the last message is earlier than the timestamp of the file.

So I suspect that the Dispatcher is not keeping up with the rate of messages that it receives.
And this increasing backlog of messages probably is eating up the memory?

Is there a way that I can detect that this is happening?
So maybe I can tune the amount of messages that I am sending?

Kind regards,
Hans
