Hi there!
Does anibody know how to free memory in opengl? We've problem at working with PImage and declaring new images.

So, this code:
Code:

PImage img;
void setup(){
size(800,600);
img=new PImage(width,height);
}

void keyPressed(){
img=null;
img=new PImage(width,height);
}
 

Keeps memory RAM stable, but the same with OPENGL:

Code:

PImage img;
void setup(){
size(800,600,OPENGL);
img=new PImage(width,height);
}

void keyPressed(){
img=null;
img=new PImage(width,height);
}
 

Increases memory ram everytime we do a new PImage, and the memory doesn't flush.

Mmmm.... very big problem...

Do you know anyway to do a manual call to memory flush?
We've tried doing a System.gc(); but it's useless...


We've also tried (as you previously said in another thread) reusing the imagevar and doing an updatePixels before displaying the image and yes, it works but we have lots of "big" images and it drops framerate to 10 - 15 wich is realy bad.

Thanks once again!
