Procedure

The menu path Start of the navigation path Development Next navigation step Memory Analysis End of the navigation path allows you to choose one of the two functions Create Memory Snapshot or Compare Memory Snapshot.

Creating a Memory Snapshot

You use this function to create a memory snapshot and store it as a file on the application server. A memory snapshot contains information about the various data objects and instances of the current internal session and their Memory Consumption.

The file name is abDbgMemory_XX_YYYY, where XX is the number of the current work process and YYYY is a running numbering within the current work process. The file names are unique as long as the work process is not restarted. After a restart, the system also restarts the count and existing files can be overwritten.

A memory snapshot is stored in an XML format and can be analyzed using the Memory Inspector.

Comparing Memory Snapshots

Choose this function to compare the last two memory snapshots with one another and display the result in a new external session in the Memory Inspector.
