I'm having a problem managing RAM usage on Windows.
My Director 7.0.2 Mac stub projector is set to use 12MB RAM, by the time
it gets to the splash screen it's using 17MB, then, after going through
a couple of submenus to a QuickTime activity, it's using 56MB! Going to
further activities doesn't seem to make any difference, it's happy at 56MB.
The guy at the QA house suggested I uncheck the "Use System Temporary
Memory" box when I make the projector. It was a good suggestion, now the
problem doesn't happen. On a Mac. It switches movies a little more
slowly but it works in the space allotted to it.
My problem now is that it's hogging RAM on Windows too, in what appears
to be the same way. And there's no little box to uncheck. Is there some
way to tell the projector to be satisfied with 18MB? Right now it needs
a machine withat least 80MB of RAM to run at all.
I have a large (21MB) shared cast, could _that_ be getting loaded all at once?
I'm stuck for an approach to this thing.
Help?
hints?
pointers?
keywords to search with besides RAM, windows, management, hog, leak?
And places to use them?
