Grasshopper file saving problem

Hi all,

I got a Grasshopper file error:

"We're terribly sorry, but the file could not be saved:

Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown."

(actually, i can't even screencapture the error window or copy messages..)

and then in Grasshopper Archive Messages:

GH_Object Cluster {f31d8d71-7536-4ac8-9c96-fde6ecda4d0a} failed to serialize itself.

I got a lot of huge clusters. so this means that one of specific cluster creates this issue?

and need to find and fix it somehow?

I got all disabled and tried to save it. but didn't help.

Thanks,

The GH/GHX file is created in memory before it is written to the disk. If you do not have enough memory left over to store a copy of the file, then you will not be able to save it. You may be out of luck here.

You can clear your Rhino undo buffer, that usually tends to free up some memory. Also, if you're using Image Samplers, don't store the image in the file. You can also unload other Grasshopper files to maybe get some bytes back.

Are you running on 32 bit Rhino? If so, can you have a look at the Memory usage of the Rhino.exe process?
