Use of command FREE MEMORY, affects other processes too?

88 Views

Hi,

Can we use FREE MEMORY command in the program, while there are other processes working in the system also?

So does it affect other daily processes that are running in the system?

And if yes, what is the outcome, does it only slow the system or could it produce other issues?

Process flow in the program is:

LOOP AT PLANT

FREE MEMORY. (?)

SELECT HUGE AMOUNT OF DATA WITH PLANT (through SAP standard method, which consumes all the memory...)

WRITE DATA TO DB.

ENDLOOP:

We dont know the internal tables inside the method that are taking all the memoery... There is LOTS of tables involved..

If we would know, we could use FREE internal_table ofcourse, but now we would like to flush the whole ABAP memory, down the toilet.

Br, Janne
