Mobile Device sync not releasing memory

Question

Sign in to vote

I have SyncServices (devices) running on Windows Mobile 5/6.5. with SqlCompact 3.5 sp1. The application on statup runs around 3 mb. As soon as I call SyncAgent.Synchronize() the memory jumps up to approx 6mb. This is fine while syncing however that additional 3mb is never released? I have tried wrapping SyncAgent in a using statement and explicitly unregistering event handlers and explicitly calling Dispose on the RemoteServerProvider and LocalDBProvider. Nothing seems to release the memory.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi, gs_ham.

Can you please provide us more info after profiling the device? You can use the netcf power toys to do this(http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/netfxcompact/thread/6abaa6eb-e6a5-4600-9398-616862da0e4f)

I ran the profiler but am not sure what I am looking for to be honest.

One thing is for certain, If I run my application without ever synching it lives around 3MB. As soon as I sync it jumps to 6-7MB and NEVER goes back down to 3MB.
