Radchart memory leak

[jdgoulden]

I am experiencing enormous memory leaks in the RadChart control while dynamically updating the data series. Since my application is running as a Kiosk, long term memory leaks are a big show stopper.

 Is anyone else experiencing these problems and how are you mitigating the issues? So far I've gotten a commitment that they are "working on it and will address it in an upcoming release", not really the answer I can give my customers. Has anyone else figure out a way to deal with this?

Hello jdgoulden,

As mentioned in our reply to your support ticket, please hide the pointmarks, tooltips and labels for the time being.

We will get back to you as soon we have any news.

Hello,

We are experiencing the same problem. Hiding the labels and the pointmarks is not an acceptable solution for us.

Do you have any updates on this problem?

Thank you.

As a followup to the problem I was experiencing, I was using an ObservableCollection to provide values to my dataseries. When I was inserting new values, it appears that bindings to objects in the original collection were not cleared and memory was consumed. My resolution was to refactor my code and use a List. After doing that my memory issues went away.
