Jdownloader terrible freezes
Jdownloader freezing terribly, link grabber responds after around 30secs. , when new links are added they are never stored when app closes, downloads start and automatically stop after less than 5mbs or 15 seconds….i have done a clean install but on adding newer links, unresponsiveness resumes(most links are from box.com,mega and youtube) I have the latest version jd2 and java and running yosemite.
please help. 07.09.18 11.52.21 <--> 07.09.18 12.33.38 jdlog://3530364433151/ |

Your JDownloader installation is running out of free memory. Your installation is limited to 512MB heap size but you're having many links in list (especially yt links require more memory than others because of many meta data) and java spends more time in memory management than with JDownloader. That explains the freezes/slowness.
How much memory does your system have? You can easily modify this yourself. Open the app with rightclick -show content and there you should find a plist file that you can edit/modify. Within you should find a line Xmx512m Replace it with, for example , Xmx1g to allow max 1GB of heap. If you want we can also help via Teamviewer, just contact us via support@jdownloader.org

I can't find that line in the info.plist...i HAVE 12 GIGS....do you recommend deleting the yt links ... i need the box ones as it's easier to search through the content than link by link....

clearing up finished/unwanted links will surely free up memory.
If you want I can help via Teamviewer, just contact us via support@jdownloader.org

Thanks that worked but I had to clear 3TBs (over a year) of links in Linkgrabber too; which I use as a database :( ( I load packages and when i need specfic content I send it to download list)
I really wish you could find a solution for storing links within JD without hogging memory. Otherwise Thanks, a contribution to your time and care on way! |

You can easily just allow more memory and then you can store more links in JDownloader You can store many (100k , 500k or more) links in list. Only memory settings must be updated
As I said, I can help with memory settings via Teamviewer, just a matter of few minutes. Besides plist, there might also be a .vmoptions file that you may edit (depends on age of installation)

edit the .vmoptions file
replace -Xmx512m by -Xmx2g that should give plenty of memory to work with You can check if that change works by looking into about dialog of JDownloader (Menu-Help->About), the last number in memory line should reflect the change in .vmoptions file.

Hi,
In JDownloader2.vmoptions, -Xmx1g works but not -Xmx2g. I get: "The JVM could not be started. The maximum heap size (-Xmx) might be too large or an antivirus or firewall tool could block the execution." My OS is win 7 x64 ultimate with 24gigs of ram. Also noticed that in JD>Help>About>Java Oracle Corporation - Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment - 1.7.0_13(32bit) Although the java version in my system from command prompt shows: CMD>java -version java version "10.0.2" 2018-07-17 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.3 (build 10.0.2+13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.3 (build 10.0.2+13, mixed mode) and CMD>where java C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath\java.exe C:\PROGRAMDATA\Oracle\Java\javapath\java.exe Kindly Advice.......

JDownloader uses its own bundled java which is a 32 bit version in your case and therefore you can't increase memory that much.
I suggest to backup/copy the complete cfg folder and then remove/uninstall JDownloader and install it again with 64bit, see mega.nz/#!CEdjTQhK!dJaN_Qvwh4abuFiV4ZaqZB-RYd3pCiYX0A3jjyJxyVk and then restore/replace the cfg folder with your backup.

Thank you.
Copied cfg like u suggested and then installed 64bit JD. Seeing the empty java folder i presumed u guys had started using the system installed jre. Now my JD 64bit 'about' shows: Oracle Corporation - Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment - 1.8.0_40(64bit) Usage: 2.11 GB - Allocated: 2.74 GB - Max: 5.33 GB And JDownloader2.vmoptions default had: -Xms64m -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false I changed it to: -Xms1g -Xmx6g -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false It's quite smooth now and starts almost instantly, even with 19k+ packages with 400k+ links, i am really happy with the awesome difference.

Was the .vmoptions file changed, cant seem to find it. Yosemite*

On Mac, the options file should be within your JDownloader folder. open about dialog and click on the shown folder, there you should find it

Well can't seem to find it, as i had failed to find that .plist when i started this thread, now no .vmoptions nor a folder titled "options". Did the last update change that (is there a graphical mode option to change memory allocation?)

|

*yes i've checked in the JDownloader folder nothing like options folder/file

There has been no changes about this but I can't tell for sure where this file is. We can either check this out together via Teamviewer, just contact me via support@jdownloader.org
Or I can check later this week and try to find myself on our mac setup

For now i'll wait for you to check on your mac,teamviewer is not yosemite compatible. My Mac fans running hot and jdownloader running slow[yes i had earlier adjusted.vmopions and it worked] I suggest a graphical module to adjust memory allocation without tampering or hustling with different program files, just a suggestion. otherwise kindly waiting when you find out where the files is, jdownloader on a halt now...thanks
