Hi guys. I'm having a problem with Subsonic 5.21. I have a media server setup which I have raised the memory limit in the info.plist file to 512mb. When Subsonic is running, the inactive memory grows and grows (subsonic's actual memory usage never exceeds ~500mb) until the computer runs out of RAM and starts writing very large swapfiles. Then, when space for these swap files runs out, the computer crashes and the server goes down. I restart and the swapfiles are gone and all is well until the cycle starts up again.Can someone please help?
Thanks

I see the same thing and I haven't been able to fix it.
Anyone know how can I go back to a previous version and save my *s and playlists? Can I use a previous .war file after i have upgraded? I've never had an issue until this release!

What I had to totally remove my installation and re-install. Something got broken in the upgrade path.

After the new install it works fine. I re-used my DB folder so it saved all my stars and playlists etc. Phew!

I'm still experiencing this on a fresh install of mountain lion. I even tried rolling back to 4.6 but no luck. Should I have to hack the memory limit or no? I'm sharing about 2tb of films, 2tb of movies, and 1tb of music. I don't know what to do, very frustrating!

I guess try upping the limit to something unreasonable and see what happens. I cannot answer on iOS very well.
