[REBOL] Out of memory
From: louisaturk:eudoramail at: 9-Apr-2002 1:38
Fellow rebols,
Several of you helped me write the following code to keep trying to ftp a
page to a remote server until it suceeds:
until [either error? try [write
ftp://id:[password--ftp--website--com]/www/index.html read %webpage.html][print
FTP Error: trying again ...
false][true]]
This works great most of the time, and has been a great help to me (for
which I am very thankful to those of you that helped me).
However, it seems that upon each try it uses a little bit more memory and
does not release it. So, after a certain number of tries (quite a few as
my computer has 512 Meg of RAM) the program crashes, giving an out of
memory error message. Is there any way to release that memory to prevent a
crash? Or is this perhaps a bug in Core 2.5 that could be fixed in 2.6?
Louis
