I'm guessing this has something to do with preloading resources for the interface or something, but whatever.
Chowder noticed something odd about dream seeker's memory usage.
Step 1: Start a new project
Step 2: Compile/Run (nothing in it)
Step 3: Look at the current memory usage for dream seeker.
Step 4: Minimize dream seeker
Step 5: Note the memory usage of dream seeker
Step 6: Un-minimize dream seeker
Step 7: Note the memory usage of dream seeker
Odd?
For me it starts at 11k, goes to 1k minimized, then 3k afterwards. And stays at 3k.
Not that any of this is consequential, just curious as to why.

Maybe your antivirus or something. Or 11k is start up memory usage. For me it's 4,816 normally and 4,800 minimized

What OS are you running? Because Vista and Windows 7 have a memory manager which cuts off unused page file and therefore makes your programs use less RAM when idle.

Guess you never debugged application then.
No matter what application you run, antivirus inject it's .dll into the application, so it can freely scan it. Scanning increase memory usage, maybe it was searching for something? | |
