mach_vm_map failed (error code=3)

问题:

After navigating through my iPAD application for a while I have noticed that the responsiveness of the app is getting slower and slower and finally my app crashes with the following error

    AppName(1779,0x3d12d18c) malloc: *** mach_vm_map(size=167936) failed (error code=3)
    *** error: can't allocate region
    *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

is this a memory related issue?

回答1:

Yes, this is a memory issue: you ran out of memory.

I suggest you use Instruments to try to track down any memory leaks.
