now im sure this is not to do with the script, but there is a memory leak, so it could be in smart, simba or reflection (most likely reflection)

im using Homes Essence Miner
i have 4GB RAM
and core i5 processor

i have been watching the memory and processor usage of simba and during the mining the processor goes up to about 50% (compared to about 15~20% for the rest of the script (this is probably the script fault)) and when it banks the essence the ram usage goes up about 200kB~2MB

Could be a reflection problem?

yes it could, forgot about reflection

im assuming its probably to do with npc finding though

During just the mining? That pretty much says right there it's a Reflection/Script issue. I haven't seen the script, but I assume it's constantly checking your player's animation while mining? Or does it constantly check your Inventory Count?

its constantly checking the animation, but what im more worried about is the 200kB~2MB every bank

I don't quite understand, before you said during the mining is when your memory usage rocketed, but also when you're banking? Which part of the 'banking process' is your memory being used up?

Just noticed that :S Wtf.

procedure MineEss;
var C: Integer;
  Essence: TRSObject;
begin
  if not LoggedIn then Exit;
  C := 0;
  R_Flag;
  FindEssence;
  while not R_InvFull do begin
    if not LoggedIn then Exit;
    if not R_WaitToAnimate(2000) then
      if not FindEssence() then Inc(C);
    RRandoms;
    AntiBan;
    if C > 2 then
    begin
      SDebug('    We Have Failed To Find Essence Over 3 Times, Trying To Re-Locate Correct Position');
      if WalkToEss then begin
        SDebug('    Re-Locating Successfull');
        C := 0;
      end;
    end;
    if C > RandomRange(10, 15) then LogOut;
  end;
  SDebug('    Inventory Full');
end;   

Edit: It's because of R_WaitToAnimate;

the CPU rockets during mining
the RAM increases during banking

i cant tell when now because it seems to have capped itself at aroung 500MB

Home, place a Wait(16) in that loop. It will ease the processor usage significantly.

Ok. Will do thanks for the tip :)!

the script has finished and smart is closed, but it has not freed the ram back to the system

Close Simba?

that frees the ram, but it should free it when the objects are destroyed (when the script is stopped or smart is closed)

I agree with this.

Also makes a difference to know if it's reflection 1 or 2. I assume home's script uses reflection 1 aye?

It's R2.

If it is freed when Simba is closed, it could be an issue with Simba not with R2. Perhaps SMART is holding memory "hostage" for lack of a better term until its parent (Simba) frees it.

my main problem with that is if you are like me where when the script ends you start another script and it creates another smart (assuming you close smart or change world in the script) and uses more ram (whether you close smart or not)
