Hi Amy,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Perhaps there is a memory leak? If there is, it's gonna be very annoying for you to troubleshoot if you have no C++ experience.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'd suggest you look at using Valgrind to detect memory leaks. You can find Valgrind here: <a href="http://valgrind.org">http://valgrind.org</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The Quick Start page should help you run it. Feel free to post the output to the mailing list or send it to me and I'll have a quick look.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Good luck!</div>

</div>
<div>I have been running simulations using optical photons that run to completion when I am using a beta source. However, when I change the source to an alpha source, suddenly all of my simulations only run for a few minutes before being killed. It seems like
the memory usage skyrockets beyond some limit and get killed. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Why would changing only the source do this? Is there something I can do to stop this from happening? The simulation runs fine for a few particles, but I am not sure why it would behave like this.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please help. Thank you,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Amy</div>
