[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [Next Generation ROS] Fast-RTPS Memory Usage - Please Help

[NotMe]

Thank you both for the very quick response.

Before my first post I was running the HelloWorld example from the eProsima Fast-RTPS. Specifically it was this commit:
"
tco at osboxes:~/Fast-RTPS-git$ git show
commit 2c86bb2d42e414007c2962942e321e82ff43ae9a

This morning I followed the instructions here:

 https://github.com/ros2/ros2/wiki/Linux-Install-Binary

And installed this:

ros2-beta1-package-linux-fastrtps.tar.bz2

Running the 'talker' and 'listener' examples in separate terminals I see that each has allocated over **540 megs** according to the 'VSZ' column in 'ps aux'.

I attached two screenshots to help communicate exactly what I used for the test before my first post and the test that I just ran this morning.

As before, any help would be greatly appreciated.

nm.
