Example: Work with 4 open files (300, 1200MB around) Why Rhino accumulates memory while working up to slow dramatically due to the exhaustion of the ram and the only way to resume the operations exit Rhino and restart your Mac?Post your Rhino info?

There was a problem with 5E7w and 5.3 where the storage used for a model was not released when the model was closed. That issue is fixed in 5E12w and 5.3.1. We do not know of any memory usage issues in 5E12w which you are running, nor do we see any memory issues running 5E12w. Closing a model and/or closing Rhino will free up the memory used.
Can you provide a model and detailed instructions for us to duplicate the memory issue you are seeing?
Unfortunately I can not provide any of the models that have led to the problem. I can say is that rhino is still consuming memory during the work sessions. the first signs of a slowdown are highlighted with the inability to copy and paste into a new part files larger models. the closing and reopening of rhino of course allows you to free up memory, but I noticed that a reboot improves Rhino’s performance. 32gb of RAM is the maximum supported by the iMac. For this, I have no way of improving performance in these cases.
Hi Simon - as you may know you can send confidential files to tech@mcneel.com if they cannot be posted here on the public forum.

I know, but unfortunately in this case it is not possible. For the moment they are forced to close Rhino and restart your iMac to continue working. Maybe (unfortunately), I simply reached the maximum threshold of working iMac / Rhino.
Hi Simon-
Unless we can submit the model, there’s little we can do.

I am aware. It is not very constructive my post, so I’m thinking of a way to play my problem with other files.
