Hello imageJ people,
recently I encounter the problem that ImageJ would not release the memory of closed images when I run a macro in batchmode. I use v1.50c of the Fiji distribution. If I don't set the batchmode to true, the memory is released normally. I tried several "tricks" but none of them lead to a release:
- run("Collect Garbage");
- run("Close All");
- call("java.lang.System.gc");
- while(nImages > 0) close();
Does anyone know what causes this jam and how I can avoid it? I'd rather want to run the macro in batchmode. Any suggestions or tipps?
Thank you!
Maybe you can find here an answer...... http://imagejdocu.tudor.lu/
Or maybe ask for help

If anyone is interested, I found the source of the problem. The issue was with the fact that "SCIFIO" is in an unstable beta phase. If it's checked, the memory is not released in batchmode. You can uncheck it here:
Options --> ImageJ2 --> SCIFIO
and here a solution I came up with. Which of course didn't work with SCIFIO but may work under other circumstances:
Global variables
var collectGarbageInterval = 10; // the garbage is collected after n Images
var collectGarbageCurrentIndex = 1; // increment variable for garbage collection
var collectGarbageWaitingTime = 100; // waiting time in milliseconds before garbage is collected
var collectGarbageRepetitionAttempts = 1; // repeats the garbage collection n times
var collectGarbageShowLogMessage = true; // defines whether or not a log entry will be made
Functions
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// this function collects garbage after a certain interval
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
function collectGarbageIfNecessary(){
if(collectGarbageCurrentIndex == collectGarbageInterval){
setBatchMode(false);
wait(collectGarbageWaitingTime);
for(i=0; i
