Title: NTDBSMGR.EXE hogging up memory
Post by Brian Snyder on 01/04/12 at 09:37:05

We got a warning window that popped up saying that the NTDBSMGR.EXE was using excessive memory. I rebooted the computer checked the memory usage which was at about 5500K but as soon as I launched DBA it jumped to 220,200K. Is this normal?

we have around 30 users, and pervasive runs on a windows 2008 server (32 bits), with 8GB memory

ntdbsmgr.exe 258,408

:P

how much memory your server has?

This is on a single stand-alone computer with 1 gig of memory.

No everything is working fine albeit a little sluggish at times. Maybe this is normal for this program to use this much memory. We just started getting these memory usage windows popping up. I think they are part of a new program that was added to the computer.

did it start after the evo update?
if not it could be a windows update. something must have changed.

You should consider updating your pervasive, for 5 users around $900 dollares. I would upgrade to v10.

take a look to this posting on Pervasive Forum

The current version is V11 and for 1 user it is $49.

V11 is way to much for a windows xp machine.
You could end up with the same problem.
