Memory Usage

-

- Restrict Memory Usage | - OutOfMemoryError -

-

The programs memory is managed by Java, which means Java allocates a - certain amount of memory which is then filled up with data of the program - and once Java decides so, it cleans up data that is not used anymore - (Garbage Collection). This leads to the actual memory usage going up and - down constantly, while the allocated memory mostly stays the same. So - even if only 50 MB are filled with data by the program at the time, Java may - still have 200 MB reserved to optimize Gargabe Collection. Thus, the memory usage in e.g. the Task Manager - may not reflect what the program actually requires, just how - much Java uses.

+

This page gives some information about memory usage and performance and + how to affect memory usage.

+ -

Use the /appinfo command in Chatty to get some information - about the current memory usage.

+

Introduction

+

There are a few reasons Chatty may use a considerable greater amount of + memory compared to other IRC clients:

-

A typical memory usage pattern, which can change over time as the program - is running while Java optimizes Gargabe Collection:
- Typical memory usage pattern

+ -

Restrict Memory Usage

-

You can restrict how much memory Java is allowed to use by specifying - commandline parameters for Java. Create a shortcut - and add the appropriate parameter after the javaw.exe but - before the -jar parameter.

+

You can use the /appinfo command in Chatty to get some + information about current memory usage. Note that these values can be + somewhat different from what is shown in e.g. Task Manager.

-

For example to restrict memory to 400 MB: javaw -Xmx400M -jar "D:\Chatty\Chatty.jar". - You should test out yourself how low you can go, although more than 150 MB - is usually recommended. Note that Java will show a higher usage than - this in the Task Manager, since this pretty much only restricts how much - the program can store, Java will need some more for it's own management - and data.

-

For the Windows Standalone version you can add this value to the file - Chatty.cfg located in the app subfolder of - the Chatty folder (it should already be there by default, so you can - simply adjust it if necessary).

+

Increase or reduce allocated memory

+

When you start a Java program there is some default maximum amount of + memory it is allowed to use, which can vary on a case-by-case basis.

-

OutOfMemoryError

-

If you get an OutOfMemoryError then Java ran out of memory. This can - either be because it simply can't allocate enough memory (at least 100 MB is recommended) - or there is a bug that prevents it from cleaning up memory that is not - actually used anymore. These kinds of bugs are pretty difficult to track - down though, especially if they only occur somewhat randomly.

+ +

You can tell Java the maximum amount heap memory it can use by using the + launch option -Xmx400M. In this example it allows a maximum + heap of 400MB, which is recommended for good performance. You should + normally never set it below 200MB or you may experience issues.

+ +

JAR Version

+

Create a shortcut (you may + already have created one with the installer). When editing the shortcut + change the target and add the launch option after Java but before the + -jar part (you may have to add the javaw and + -jar parts). It should end up looking similiar to:

+

javaw -Xmx400M -jar "D:\Chatty\Chatty.jar"

+ +

Standalone Version

+

The Chatty.exe of the Windows Standalone + version will look for launch options in the file Chatty.cfg + in the app folder, so you can add the -Xmx400M + there, after [JVMOptions] (should already be there by + default, so you can just change the number).

+ + +

Running out of memory

+

If Java cannot clean up enough memory to make space for new data to be + stored, an OutOfMemory exception will occur.

+ + + +

Short of analyzing a heap dump, basicially a full copy of the programs + memory, it is hard to tell what exactly takes up the memory. Such + analysis is often performed duing development and testing, but if an + issue can not be reproduced then finding the exact cause can be + difficult.

+ +

Reducing memory usage

+

The following settings can be adjusted to reduce memory usage:

+ +
+
Moderation - Clear message history of inactive users
+
Long running instances will accumulate more and more messages stored + for display in the User Dialog. Setting this to a lower value can + reduce memory usage.

- Version 0.9.4 (This one!) (2019-01-08) + Version 0.9.5 (This one!) (2019-02-14) + [back to top] +

+

Twitch released the Stream Tags API for third-party developers, so Chatty + now supports setting Stream Tags in the Admin Dialog, including the + ability to add Favorites and set them via Presets.

+ +

There have also been improvements on base memory usage and memory usage + for long running instances, which may improve overall performance as + well.

+ + 
+### Chat
+- Added symbol `!` for VIPs and sort in userlist
+- Improved support for some new chat messages
+- Changed Cheeremote default setting to animated
+- Limited inputbox to 500 characters (Twitch Chat cuts off messages longer than
+  500 characters, so this probably makes sense in most cases)
+- Disabled gift sub combining since it didn't work well enough
+
+### Moderation
+- Append approved/denied behind AutoMod messages
+- Don't hide indirect ModLog actions (e.g. "add blocked terms" when denying
+  AutoMod message)
+- Treat AutoMod messages like regular messages concerning bans (so e.g. they get
+  deleted when the user is timed out)
+- Shorten and filter linebreaks from AutoMod messages (normal chat messages
+  cannot contain linebreaks, but AutoMod messages apparently do sometimes)
+- Added setting to remove User Dialog messages of inactive users to reduce
+  memory usage (defaults to 12 hours, changeable in Moderation Settings)
+
+### Other
+- Added Stream Tags support to Admin Dialog
+- Added setting to automatically close Livestreamer/Streamlink Dialog when
+  player is started
+- Replace Emoji codes in Custom Commands as well
+- Added setting to Stream Highlights to select which user types can trigger chat
+  command (e.g. Moderators and VIPs)
+- Added setting to always show tray icon
+- Changed tray icon action to switch between show/minimize to tray
+- Added setting to automatically hide Live Streams window when minimizing Main
+  window
+- Added splash screen window icon
+- Changed image file cache duration in an attempt to improve startup time
+- Improved memory usage
+- Improved debug output
+- Updated help
+
+### Bugfixes
+- Added handling for possible regex error
+- Added limit to some input fields to prevent hanging when inadvertently pasting
+  very long text
+- Removed confusing Program Group page from installer
+- Fixed AutoMod message timestamp custom color
+- Fixed loading FFZ Emotes for namechanged channels
+- Fixed User Dialog ban info being overwritten sometimes
