Title: JRiver (latest version) is eating virtual memory
Post by: giamma on November 12, 2013, 02:35:07 pm

I have been noticing that my laptop becomes really slow lately.

I checked the processes and I see JRiver at 1GB Virtual mem.
Once I kill it, everything goes back to normal.

I updated to the very latest version (today), but i see that it already at 600MB

I am actually not using it, but the media server is running in background

Any idea ?

It could be normal - building thumbnails or doing audio analysis.   A virus checker can slow these down too.

Yes but my laptop its totally frozen, until I kill JRiver.

I have been using JRiver for years, and I do not remember this issue before.

Open Windows Resource Monitor (you can get to it from Windows Task Manager), check the box next to JRiver and see what resouces are being used.
