My memory usage while using C4D for a long period of time becomes above 90% (How to fix)

Specifically, when I create keyframes using Pose Library for like 5 - 10 minutes (not sure if this is relevant). I found a weird work around where I change the Undo Depth in Preferences to a certain value (I cycle around 50 - 53). Not sure why that works, but everytime I change it, C4D memory usage resets as if the memory was purged.

Is there like a better fix for this one?

Hi Dr. Sassi,

Is there like a “refresh” button/keyboard shortcut in C4D? like pressing F5 in Windows?

Hi openmindedcomedy,

A while ago, I had that problem (Mac) with After Effects. So I researched and found the app iCleanMemory. I run it quickly whenever something has left too much memory use, like a badly created plug-in. I can’t guarantee that it is working for everyone, but here it works.

All the best

Hi openmindedcomedy,

I checked, and I bought it in 2012 for $ 1.99 - it has helped me with my average 40-80GB psb files many hundred times alone.

Again, this is my personal opinion, not an official Maxon suggestion.

All the best
