Help with locking system

M

MFRASER

I understand that this is a shot in the dark, but I have a system that seems
to lock up continuously when I am trying to convert a large dataset, 16,530
rows into my objects. I don't know if the system runs out of memory, heap
size at about 90,000 or what. The system just stops working all together.
I am unable to stop the program, acts like an endless loop. I have been
toying with the garbage collector to free up some of the heap space, but I
have been unsuccessful with getting the function to convert the entire
dataset to my objects. Is there any other profiler that I can use to gauge
what is happening to my program?

Again I apologize for the general nature of this question, but I am at a
loss on what else to look at to help figure out the problem.

Thanks in advance.

You could try this - it is a very good tool to analyse memory problems in
..NET code - it's not free but there's a 14 day fully functional trial
version available from the website. It could just be that 16,530 objects is
simply too much for your system to handle - depends on the size of the
objects of course...

Thanks. I have used the utility you mentioned. Thanks. I might have
to split up the dataset a process chunks of data at a time.
