When using the latest unstable Limwire 4.1.5, either when it crashes, or when I close it, it will sit and take up about 15% of ram and proc usage. It is not visible in 'top', but it does come up in 'ps aux'. Killing its PID in top works to recover the system resources. Emerging the latest stable 4.0.8 and trying to run it gives me this error:

I also got an error with the latest unstable, however I was able to ignore it, and the program would still run. Not the case with 4.0.8. I then re-emerged 4.1.5, and now everything seems to work, and it doesn't die and take up resources.
Comment 1 Jon Hood (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-18 10:46:17 UTC 
I told Liam to report this bug because it had some java stuff in it I was hoping one of the java gurus could look into. Anyone seen this stuff before on the java front?
Comment 2 Liam Gilbride 2004-10-19 10:18:35 UTC 
A followup:

I discovered that the re-emerging didn't really fix my problem. I also see what's causing the issue now. Sometimes when I'm downloading a lot of files concurrently, some of them will hang at the "Saving File..." stage indefinitely. If I close limewire while it's doing this, it sits in my mem and needs to be killed. After I start it up again after doing this, it redownloads the files from 0% and saves fine. Then when I close it, it clears itself just fine.
Comment 3 Jon Hood (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-11-27 10:37:47 UTC 
does this happen with limewire-4.2.3?
Comment 4 Liam Gilbride 2005-01-12 00:08:03 UTC 
Sorry for the lapse, the problem resolved itself, but I have no idea what caused it, or what fixed it. Resolved is resolved I guess though.
