Subject [firebird-support] FreeUDFLib Memory Problem
Author Martin Dew
Hi,



Since moving to FB from IB I am finding that my customers 24/7
operations are being brought to a grinding halt, and when checking it is
that FB is using 1.9 gb of memory or more and an error appears warning
that freeUDFLib out of memory.



I fully expect that this is related to the freeUDFLib library, but what
I am wondering is that if I look through sqlExplorer at a function, it
says;



DECLARE EXTERNAL FUNCTION F_MID

CSTRING(254), INTEGER, INTEGER

RETURNS CSTRING(254)

ENTRY_POINT "Mid" MODULE_NAME "FreeUDFLib.dll"



Should this be declared with a FREE_IT ? is that a requirement or does
it depend on how the udf is written etc ? bit of a dunce, sorry !



Cheers

Mart
