I am running a Workspace and after a while it gives an error and as if the memory had burst, is there any way to control memory?
Best Answer
Control FME Desktop memory usage

My top six tips, in no particular order off the top of my head:
- Unblock your transformers as much as possible
- If you have multiple writers, replace them with FeatureWriters
- Only read what you need, where-clauses are your friend
- Let the database do the heavy lifting, e.g. a join on two database tables is a whole lot quicker than a FeatureMerger
- Only keep the attributes you need at each step of the way (AttributeKeeper, yay)
- Try to avoid the ListExploder on huge numbers of features/items, if possible
Also, consider 64-bit FME.
