Igloo is 'Iris GL On OpenGL' it's a SW layer that translates Iris GL commands
to OpenGL on the new SGI machines. All SGI platforms from Impact onwards ( so
including iR and O2 etc ) are native OpenGL so use Igloo to run IrisGL code.
I'm assuming you're that same person that has a call logged with this problem,
you should be gettinng some feedback from that soon. Let me know if it's not
you but basically you either have:
Incorrect patches - for Impact check you have patch 1447 for Irix 6.2 or 1332
for 5.3 ( should upgrade to 6.2 if you haven't ) OR you have an application
error OR Igloo has a slow memory leak. If it's either of the latter try to
profile your app ( say with Workshop ), see what calls trigger high memory
usage. If you get a core dump then the stack trace will probably show the
hungry calls. It ought to be pretty easy to narrow this down to a small piece
of code with the same problem - the person handling you support call can work
with you on this.
Cheers
Rob
