IExplorer Memory consumption with TestComplete 10.60

Greatings folks....   I've noticed since I've updated my test environment from TC 10.5 to 10.6 that IE seems to consume more and more memory and threads as I cycle through my testcases.    I don'...

Yes it consumes an incredible amount of memory and doesn't seem to release it. When I run the same test suite manually, I do not run into the same issues. I have opened a ticket with TC support but have not had any success up to this point.

Thx Tod

 

Let me know if they find something...

 

I get that problem with TC & TE, since I've updated to 10.6. Only in IE (whichever version...9, 10, 11)

 

Although, one pointer might be that I launch IE using this technic :

 

function Open_IE(url)
{
  var myBrowser;
  // Set the opening URL to parameter
  Browsers.Item(btIExplorer).Run(url,30000);

 

  var myBrowser = Sys.Browser("*",0);
  Project["Variables"]["currentBrowser"]= myBrowser;
  return myBrowser;
 
}
