How to use releaseFreeMemory() on Linux
« on: January 24, 2022, 05:56:31 PM »
Hey there,

As the title implies: does anyone know how to use releaseFreeMemory() ? I'm curious what that is for.

Cheers,

To clarify: I know how to invoke the command that's listed in the API... I just don't understand when it would be necessary?

Hello stephan,

The command has been implemented in the older version, when some algorithms/methods (not used in the actual Metashape version already) could lead to the memory leak on Linux.
