A comment on the question "What on Earth is causing this program to use 100 MB of memory?" in Songbird:
Hm, so these plugins are used by Songbird to make it, well, pretty much what it is, is that right? In that case, there's not a whole lot that can be done to trim memory usage, other than using these plugins more efficiently, which from what I understand is likely to be a slow process. The high memory usage isn't a terrible deal for me, to be honest. 4 GB of memory is very plentiful. I just want to know what exactly goes on that causes such a small looking program to use so much memory. Even with a large amount of RAM, the less you lose, the more you have available! – EcoMaster21, on July 10, 2009 02:04 -
EcoMaster21 asked a question in Songbird on July 09, 2009 20:18:
What on Earth is causing this program to use 100 MB of memory?I'm new to Songbird, and I have to say, I'm impressed. I don't have any issues with the program's layout, and Last.FM integration is very simple and easy. One thing really bothers me, though, and that's the fact that even though Songbird appears minimal and cleaned, is that it uses 100+ MB of RAM.
I know this is not a new problem, but I am very curious as to why exactly this is. It's not a memory leak, it starts out right around 100 MB. Is it the integrated web browser? If so, why on Earth isn't it optional?
I want to continue using Songbird, but goodness, this is definitely excessive for a media player! Is there any work being done on finding out what exactly the problem is here, and if so, how long until this could be resolved? -
