Then it's very strange that just Lazarus IDE is showing this behaviour on my system. Other software and tools I have written can allocated lots of memory, but when I free those objects, those "crude memory values I spoke of" drop considerably. Even MSEide shows this. Start the MSEide, memory usage is 8MB in Gnome System Monitor. Load 400 units and memory jumps to 30MB. Switch between a few tabs, compile the project, run the project. Then do File -> Close All files. Memory usage in 'gnome-system-monitor' drops back down to 7MB. Go figure. So again, Lazarus IDE is doing something wrong! -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
