Memory consumption issues (when doing large batches of photos)

i have user reports plugin consumes memory until lr/system no longer operable, when doing large batches of photos.

 

i have type of problem time time, not always, , in recent case, *not* same operation client complaining about.

 

begs question: there way control whether excessive memory used, or force released, when doing operation upon large batches of photos.

 

note: operation concluding catalog transactions every 1000 photos (exits with-write function, , re-enters). client reports lr/system slowdown @ 4000 photos. running lr3, windows os - system details not yet known.

the operation concluding catalog transactions every 1000 photos

i wonder if reducing 100 might have significant impact.  recall previous thread here discussed long-running operations , memory impact on lr internal undo stack (not sqlite's undo logs).  perhaps in circumstances lr expanding memory buffer undo stack , not releasing reason.
