Memory leak while Loading and Unloading OpenVINO model continuously in a loop

Unloading OpenVINO models can cause a memory leak. Calling IMAQ DL Create (OpenVINO) and then IMAQ DL Dispose to dispose the model can leak around 1KB of memory. 

Workaround:

We recommend re-using a Deep Learning session created with a specific model to avoid the memory leak.

IMAQ Match Pattern 4.vi hangs when run with 4 cores. This intermittent behavior can occur on machines with 4 cores, or if the application uses IMAQ Multi-Core Options to set the number of cores used by VDM equal to 4.

Workaround:

Use IMAQ Multi-Core Options to before IMAQ Match Pattern 4.vi to set the number of cores used to 1; reset to use all cores after IMAQ Match Pattern 4.

MSVC and CVI EXE examples hang launching the VDM runtime license activation dialog if the license is in evalualtion mode

If the VDM Runtime license is in evaluation mode, the example executables hang on first call to a licensed function and  the NILM licensing dialog to evaluate or activate the VDM runtime will not display. If the license was ready to evaluate, you will see the evaluation get started based on status shown in NILM before the hang happens, but then the executable will never continue.

Workaround:

Activate the VDM runtime license.
