FAQ: What is the difference between "in-use" and "allocated" memory?

The primary concern is HOOPS Visualize's usage of system main memory. The dynamic allocation and releasing of memory in Visualize is controlled by an internal memory manager. The memory manager may allocate memory in numerous situations, such as when objects are inserted into the database, an update is performed, or files are loaded. As items are removed from the database, the memory manager takes care of the freeing of the memory associated with them. Visualize allocates memory using its own memory pool and attempts to reuse memory chunks after entities are deleted. Learn more in our forum post.
