Skype on Mac OS Sierra each too much memory

Hello

I made a bad decision to install Sierra (previously it was El Capitan). The entire system had lower performance (negative) but I know that I have to live with it. However, I have a serious question for Skype running. After starting up it will start taking memory and in a few minutes, she reached beyond 2 GB. I contacted support Skype and their representative available to my system remotely and checked that all found but childless.

Is there someone who has the same problem and what is the remedy?

Finally and above all, a special thanks goes to Apple for making our machines just slow and in return give us a couple of unnecessary functions.

Thank you

I don't have this problem - however I have issues _using_ Skype: I cannot click on links or open images...

  • AVG says using too much memory because multiple firefox is open, but I only see one.

    AVG regularly analyzes in the background. Lately he has demonstrated a popup window that says multiple applications of Firefox are running and using too much memory, so I should close some. But I can only see 1. Tried CTRL ALT DEL to see if I could find the answer, but only showed 1 firefox, and that he used more than 28 000. So I think that AVG is correct, but does not know how to see what who or where they are. They DO NOT display in the lower menu on the main screen, so I guess they are in the background. Do not have the virus, and Firefox, regularly updates itself. What should I do to fix?

    Hi cmich80220.
    It is true, that you should only be able to run only one instance of Firefox at the same time. I searched but could not find someone else with a similar problem. If the problem comes back to Firefox running slowly, you can consult this article for troubleshooting:

  • Satellite 4030 has much too much memory embedded - 66 MB not 64 MB

    Hi all

    I have a 2nd Satellite 4030 user who has far too much memory shipped! [66 MB not 64 mb]
    The maximum allowed to my machine is Total = 312 mb.

    I added a 256 MB stick in slot 1 memory to the supposed 64 MB on board & it does not start.
    I put back the original 128 MB & started stick & apparently, I have 66 MB of RAM?

    Adding to this 66 MB 256 = 314 MB! 2Mbmb more than max allowed.
    I tried 2 different sticks of 256 of ram to my other laptop Toshiba & still no boot [prove it is the amount of ram?]

    Am or work around for this I stuck running on only 192 MB?

    Hello Morton

    This is a very stupid situation. That I can see, nobody has written anything in the last 3 days and to be honest, it is not easy to say why this happens.

    I don't really have experience with these cases, but maybe you can try to update BIOS. Check Toshiba support page and try to update BIOS. Maybe BIOS values will be refreshed, and after that the memory will be displayed as it should be.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).

  • Explorer.exe and svchost.exe using too much memory

    I have disabled the automatic updates after the last round of updates, and now, all of a sudden, explorer.exe and svchost.exe use too much memory... enough to interfere with other programs, I try to use.

    Help?

    Windows XP Professional - Svc Pack 3 processor: Intel (r) Pentium (r) D CPU 2.80GHz CPU speed: 2.73 GHz memory: 512 MB

    Why you turn off automatic updates?

    There are between the two options. I just set it to notify. When it is practical, I go to the Microsoft Update slte and use the custom (not Express) option. This gives the user full control of the update of trial.

    You will have a better idea of the cause of the problem using Process Explorer.

    Download Process Explorer.
    For more information about Process Explorer, see here:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/SystemInformation/ProcessExplorer.mspx

    With svchost.exe provide us a list of services using the process. There are number of processes that are using svchost.exe, so we need to know that we provide more targeted assistance. Right click on the process, click on properties and look at the Services tab.

    Solution Explorer. exe has a number of subprocesses. Select the sub-process, click Properties and check the Services tab.

    Have you recently changed all types of starting any service. This often leads to the problem. Users often disable a reflection of service to speed up the system performance. In practice what is done is of one or several programs to malfunction.

  • My Flash project contains too much memory.

    I am creating a Flash photo album and left many pictures in my work. However, my project has recently stopped working in Flash Player and either crashes or causes an error message indicating that too much memory is in use. I need all these pictures in my photo album, so removal of some is out of the question. Is there any other way to fix my project?

    Yes, not to put one of the photos in the photo album manually.  Have them all loaded dynamically. You will not have to leave one of them and update the album will not require editing, just change the data file, you use that identifies the images and add images to the collection.

  • VMFusion 3.1.3 uses too much memory 'inactive' on my Mac

    Hi all

    I have a new Mac desktop (1 month) with 8GBs of memory. I installed VMware Fusion version 3.1.3 using Windows 7, but I noticed that

    If I start melting in the morning, in the evening, I left the 880MB of memory 'Free' approximatelt - most is made by Fusion or Windows 7 which memory is allocated in the "Inactive" Mac activity monitor - I do not how many, but one much more than say 3-4GB, discovering in mind when I did not merge performs is roughly 1 GB.

    Any help please!

    :-)

    Cheers all,.

    John

    It is a problem of Mac OS X.  OS X will convert inactive memory free memory when it's in an OOM condition, but not earlier.  Of course, there is a performance hit when this happens.  If you want to control when this conversion occurs, you need the "purge" the Developer Tools for Mac OS X unix command.  If you have already installed Xcode, typing in "purge" in the Terminal should erase this memory for you after appearing to hang your computer for a few seconds.

    In my view, that the problem is with memory mapped files.  Fusion is "dirty" files and OS X is save some wear disc and write delays do not write the file until it is necessary to do so (you stop the merger, or use the command purge).

  • kernel_task takes too much memory on El Capitan

    Hello, I own a MacBook Pro retina 13 inches beginning 2013 (MacBook Pro 10.2) with 8 GB RAM and El Capitan 10.11.6.

    I noticed that I have a process in my activity monitor called kernel_task who gets in as 750 MB of my memory, sometimes of 1 GB. It's very embarrassing and I can't find a solution. I've read the 'tutorials' how to solve but is without limitation my CPU like crazy, it takes like 11%... or more (but not 600% as I've seen on other users). Is however very thirsty on memory and I can't kill him or identify the source of the problem. I rebooted my system does everything like in the book, no devices attached. I don't have a heating problem... or at least I don't think. My cooler starts when he needs too.

    Also I noticed this process is written (the tab Disk Activity Monitor) as 13.6 Mb on 64-bit (like) and reads 716Kb. What the * happens?
    I want that my memory at the back. Can anyone help?
    Thank you.

    I say it's normal. kernel_task is the core of the operating system.

  • Svchost is taking too much memory, help please?

    My computer started lagging randomly the other day and I checked the Task Manager processes and saw svchost was using almost 600 k of memory and about 40% of the CPU. I right click the svchost and went to services and seen it as things netsvcs the svchost related.

    I didn't know what to do and could not find a way to solve this problem, so I decided that I would just restore my computer with my CD of Windows 7 Ultimate. The reinstallation of Windows 7 (formatted my HD), it would allow me to make updates. I kept getting errors (8007001F I think is most often, I got) I searched and searched on the error I received, but could not find anything useful. So I ignored just updated. Now the svchost is take a lot of memory. Mind you, until I reinstalled Windows 7, my computer has been updated and the svchost was taking a lot of memory. Here are the screenshots.

    Also, I try to put an end to the process, but it results in a blue screen and restart sometimes.

    I suggest you download Process Explorer. This freeware utility performs a similar function to the Windows Task Manager, but it goes much further.

    For more information about Process Explorer, see here:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/SystemInformation/ProcessExplorer.mspx

    When you open the process Explorer, you need customize settings. This by checking the options on the view menu drop-down. Click Select columns, and then the process Image tab check all the boxes before description, Image, Image Type and command line path. I suggest that you click also on two other options in the drop-down display, namely show processes from all users and display fractions CPU.

    The extent to which you can customize is considerable. You can change the information displayed and this sometimes leads to confusion and frustration.

    Processes are listed in the left column. Some names appear to be duplicated. This isn't so. Svchost.exe is an apparent example of duplication. You generally listed something like 10 cases. If you right-click one and select properties and the Image tab you will find that the command line is different for each instance of svchost.exe. Each instance of svchost.exe is another group of services. You can see a list of these Services if you click on the Services tab.
