print to stderr:
does it make sense to redirect the error output to /dev/null - in oder to throw away everything that might clog up RAM ?
$ sudo puredata -stderr 2>/dev/null

Indeed i involuntarily write a lot to the console:
i connect to an IP port every second via netsend  (need to send status information to the lemur - app )
and netsend throws a message:
netsend_connect: already connected

hopefully printing to stderr will solve this - thanks IOhannes!

would there be a way to tell netsend to only post more dramatic errors?

thanks anyway!!!

do you happen to print stuff to the console continuously? There was an issue 
that when you print *a lot* of text, the GUI would eventually run out of memory 
(don't know if this has been fixed in the meantime).

the question is how to actually fix it in a reasonable way.
maybe I do want to have zillions of lines of text in my RAMmed up machine?

anyhow, if the printout is indeed the culprit (and it sounds like a
plausible analysis to me), then a simpe fix could be to just print to
stderr.
that is, start pd with:

$ pd -stderr

you will still have a GUI, but the Pd-console will be redirected to the
terminal (which just drops the oldest lines).


BTW: your last three e-mails all had different subject lines although the topic 
is the same. make sure that you keep the subject line, so people can later 
follow the thread.

+1, although you could have changed the subject as well :-)


very sorry! i was sending from webmail, which jumbled stuff up...
