A problem of that sort was uncovered recently (see thread "crash after 63
frames" in p.unofficial.patches at the beginning of November), though it
seems to be related to image_pattern and pigment_pattern using an image_map
but not to using image_map directly. This particular issue will be fixed in
the next release.
However, I sometimes have a memory problem with repeat renders of files
containing direct image_map statements (particularly with large maps), but I
have not been able to replicate it so far.

I've had this too. Using meshes and image maps. My work around is to use the
"Queue". Create several ini files with sequential Subset_Start_Frame (+SF) and
Subset_End_Frame (+EF). E.g.
1.ini -> +SF1 +EF10
2.ini -> +SF11 +EF20
3.ini -> +SF21 +EF30
USW
Use the task manager to tune the distribution, PF Usage is a nice stepped
sawtooth.

Yes, the scene uses a image_pattern with image_map...:-(

The scene uses JPG files, should I anyway send you a zip file (via mail

Yes, please.

I have minor problems with attachements in my mailbox recently. I do not know
when it will be fixed so I would prefer something downlodable. I suppose using
binary group on this server would be good choose.

Thanks. I tried your scene and indeed it agresively gathered memory under 3.5
(I was able to render 70 frames). Good news. It was related to one of already
fixed bugs. I tried recent development version and rendered 1000 frames
without any wasting of memory.

Great! Thanks a lot!
Can I get the fixed version anywhere?

AFAIK it will be available when it will be completly ready :-) Being optimist
I can say it will be earlier than later because it is very advanced on its way
to release.

Hey, this is better than The Oracle of Delphi...;-)
Thanks!
