How big is the library in G:\lib? i.e. number of files and total lines.
What platform are you running on?
Yes, IDLdoc can run out of memory, but it should be able to handle
fairly large libraries. It can run on the IDL library, about 1400 files
with 400K lines.

Thank Mike's answer so much.
There are 392 files and twenty thousand lines in my library.
It is smaller than yours.
I tested only one pro file in a new lib folder, and the output
directory is empty.
The testing file is "colorbar.pro" written by Dr. David Fanning.
It still occurs, however, the same problem. There are some
features....
1. Everything is done, and the index.html was created well.
2. It spends few seconds maintained at 100% before the usage of CPU
down.
3. The total usage of memory is almost 200MBytes, and It can't drop
anymore.
I really want to thanks for your answer again.
Steve
