computer crash because of memory
A quick search on www.NI.com for Memory Management will yield some good results, including this one. You should probably also check out this page, which tells you how to show buffer allocations on your block diagram. A buffer allocation will signal where a copy of the data on the wire is being made, copies of arrays (in a for or wile loop for instance) can add up pretty quickly. You should also check and make sure that you are closing all references that you open, as well as closing any write to file instances that you use.
Sure thing. If you open a reference to another VI within your VI (for instance, to call the VI without having the main VI hang until the VI completes) you need to be sure to close the reference. The reason for this is that if you are opening a reference in a loop without closing it, it will keep loading the VI into memory over and over again. This is a common way to build a memory leak. I am not sure if make use of references in your program or not, so this may not apply to you.
