Hi,
when trying to run a simulation cyclically over a longer period of time, coppeliasim always crashes after approx. 1 - 1,5 hours bc of memory usage. Ive tried different options in my simulation scene and watched the memory usage. so i think there is a problem with newton dynamics engine. when running the simulation with this engine the ram usage nearly doubles within 5 minutes. using bullet 2.78 (all other settings were the same) the problem doesnt occur. screenshots with the memory usage were send to following email adress: [email protected]
Cheers
increasing memory usage causes crash (newton physics-engine)
Re: increasing memory usage causes crash (newton physics-engine)
Hello,
very probably the memory leak happens in the Newton library itself. We can't fix or improve that, as we do not upgrade physics engines when available (except for MuJoCo), as most engine upgrades will break compatibility (i.e. behavior change, wich we didn't observe with MuJoCo).
As of now, we do not plan adding the newest version of the Newton engine, but rather focusing on MuJoCo and maybe adding Drake.
