Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Just a couple of questions regarding ram usage, and I guess cpu too. I`m running IDV on a fairly old windows XP desktop, with 850mhz cpu and 512mb ram. I know I`m pushing the limits with that setup, but I wanted to get a feel for IDV, the scripting etc before shelling out the funds for an upgrade. One thing I did notice, even while IDV or the GUI was not doing anything, the ram down in the bottom left was constantly climbing eventually hitting the ceiling. Is there a memory leak of some kind or is this just normal? Also, I could do with some recommendations about running IDV and scripts via batch files on a windows server (like windows 2003). To be comfortable without running the risk of IDV dying during a batch/script process, what kind of ram and cpu specs should I need. I don`t want to spend a fortune of dual core processors etc if it not needed however! Thanks.
