Memory leak with Linkref

No, there is nothing wrong with LinkRefs in DXL. Can you describe what exactly means 'your project becomes very slow and heavy'? What is a heavy project? What project? You mean the execution speed of your DXL attributes??

Yes i mean the execution of the scripts is slow. To save a module including that dxl attribute is slow, scrolling the module is slow

This is part of the code of my dxl attribute.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
LinkRef l
//i check for each incoming link and according to the link module name or the source name i set some variable.
Module m_linkModule
ModName_ srcModRef
ModName_ trgModRef
string s_linkModName
string s_srcMod
for l in o<-"*" do {
m_linkModule = module(l)
s_linkModName = fullName(m_linkModule)""
srcModRef = source l
s_srcMod=name srcModRef
if (name m==s_srcMod) {
b_isDerived = true
}else if(s_linkModName == s_PropLink) {
b_isAllocated = true
break
} else if (s_srcMod0:2=="AD_") {
b_isSatisfied = true
// da valutare se mettere un break
}
}

Well, when it is really very slow, chances are that you are a) using Layout DXL and not attribute DXL and b) you might be opening and closing modules all the time and/or c) may have expensive recursive algorithms to trace from your objects.

The code you posted contains no hint to any performance issue. It is likely that some other part of the code creates the problem. If you post the whole code we could probably say more.
