OutOfMemoryException during publishing a big library project

[ark]

Installer(.exe or .msi):

.exe

License type(Free, Trial/License code):

Free

Studio/Robot version:

I have tried v18.3.2 and v19.6.0.

Current behavior:

UiPath Studio throws OutOfMemoryException when I publish a library project which contains about 250 xaml files.
Windows task manager shows that UiPath uses over 3GB memory.
I think UiPath cannot use over 4GB memory because it is a 32-bit system.

Do anyone have a idea how to avoid this problem?
I know I can avoid the problem if I divide the library project into smaller projects.
But I don’t want to divide it because xaml files have dependencies between each other and I already use the library for many robots.

Thank you.

Hope this could help you

Out of memory error/exception

When: in Debug add a package from Package Manager open a project in Studio(.xaml) read large Excel files: >300.000 rows in Orchestrator, error: Schedule for process could not be started. Undefined robot. Solution: By default, maxReceivedMessageSize of the named pipes binding is 65,536. Increase this parameter in %localappdata%\UiPath\app-17.1.6522\UiRobot.exe.config Details in this post: UiPath Out of Memory - #22

Cheers @ark

Thank you for your replay.

I increased maxReceivedMessageSize after your post.
( Now, maxReceivedMessageSize seems to be defined in UiPath.Service.Host.exe.config. )

But it didn’t work.

Do you have any other ideas?

I am facing exactly the same issue . Have you solved ?
Could you help me ? thanks a lot

[ark]

Sorry, I haven’t.
Publish sometimes succeed after restarting Studio.
So, I make it through now.
But I know it won’t work if I add more xaml files to the project.

@ark Can you approximate the average file size?

[ark]

@alexg The average file size is 12 KByte.

The biggest one is 400KByte.
The second biggest one is 48 KByte.

Thank you.

[ark]

@alexg I made a sample project which causes OutOfMemoryException.
It contains 250 xaml files which are all the same content.
the file size is under 6 Kbyte.

I tried this problem again with UiPath 19.9.
OutOfMemoryException occured during compiling 57th xaml.
This problem may get worse.

This issue should be fixed in the coming 2019.10 version

[ark]

I found this issue was fixed in 2019.10.0-beta.200. It’s fantastic!
Thank you for your hard work!
