Hi Ravi,
   what version of the Testing Framework are you using? A while back there was a known issue that could lead to this behavior if a TestList encounters a huge number of failures. I believe it was fixed so please try upgrading the the latest available version of the Testing Framework.

How much RAM does the machine have? Also, try increasing the swap space on the hard drive.

Hope to hear from you soon.

[ravi]

can you send me the latest version of the run time.

we are running using the Run time version : 01027Telerik.WebUI.TestExecution.2010.3.1307.

in our build system we use 8GB RAM.

you can see the attachment 

Physical memory usage on TFS-AP223 in the last 24hrs.  

the max available memory free doesn’t drop below 2.5Gb any time

Once the Telerik Runtime version is installed, is there a servcie that starts running on the server?
if so can we restart the service on the server before executing the each set of test cases.

As we have diffrent Telerik tests running, each for a different web application.

Hello Ravi,
   I checked out your account. Since you're not a Licensed Developer for Test Studio Runtime you'll need to download the Test Studio Runtime from your License Holder's account (screenshot 1).

Hi ravi,

Let's make sure you're running the latest version of the product. Here you states you're running 2010.3 while at your download history I noticed you have the 2011.1 version download as well. Can you please check if the problem persists with the latest R1 (2011.1) as well? Make sure you install Test Studio on your machine and the RunTime Edition 2011.1 on the remote machine so that they can communicate for sure without troubles.

The only service we keep running after installing the RunTime Edition is the Scheduling Service. I've attached a capture for you to take a look. If you don't schedule tests on that machine you can safety stop that service and see if you still get the issue. If your memory doesn't drop as you would expect than there is something else than our service that is keeping the memory high.

I hope this helps.
