Public bug reported:
I am developing a custom C++ programs which continuously processes a
huge number of short videos, so several instances of cv::VideoCapture
are endlessly created and destroyed. I noticed that the memory
consumption keeps growing, until after some days the process gets killed
by the operating system.
After careful testing I tracked down the memory leak in
cv::VideoCapture. Commenting only this object, leaving the rest of the
program untouched, with the exception of those parts where this object
is used, which are changed so that the job done is as close as possible
(ex. using a zero-initialized cv::Mat object instead of a video frame)
leads to no memory leak after hours of execution.
This is portion of code where the error occurs:
void procressVideo(boost::filesystem::path name) {
VideoCapture video(name.string());
if(!video.isOpened()) {
return;
}
size_t width = video.get(CV_CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH);
size_t height = video.get(CV_CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT);
// Process frames
Mat prev(height, width, CV_8UC3, Scalar(0));
Mat frame;
for(long i = 0; video.read(frame); i++)
{
cvtColor(frame, frame, CV_BGR2RGB);
frame.convertTo(frame, CV_8UC3);
...
...
frame.copyTo(prev);
}
video.release();
boost::filesystem::remove(name);
}
