Re: Memory usage - TB vs Thunderbird 17.0
Hello Bob, Friday, December 7, 2012, 12:19:43 AM, you wrote: BR> TB only uses 30 MB of memory and Thunderbird uses 144 MB of memory. I consistently see TB using 165MB of RAM to start, but I do have 2 POP3 accounts, 3 IMAP Gmail accounts and 1 IMAP GMX.us account, so maybe that is the starting memory difference. However, I also get "Out of memory" freezes every 1 or 2 days. At those points, TB is using 1.5GB of RAM. I have to kill the process, then restart TB. So, there is considerable memory growth in the latest MSI and the .1 beta version. Maybe the developers should plug these "leaks"?

Well, I did remove that, too, and for a split-second saw the splash screen pop up and go under. My computer is too fast for it to be actually seen.

I have two shortcuts, one with /nologo and one with no parameters that I use when I want to see the splash screen. But I had never used the /minimise parameter. I have just tried it and, even if the /nologo is NOT included, TB is started minimised and the splash screen is not displayed. There may be some logic in not showing the splash screen when starting TB minimised. So, I'm afraid that if you want to see the logo you will also have to remove the /minimise parameter. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Splash Screen
Hello TBBETA Members! I am a bit confused. A long time ago I set up a link to open TB with the command line parameters /minimise und /nologo, the latter of which I temporarily deleted if I wanted the splash screen [i.e. for Christmas]. did the same yesterday but still don't get the splash screen. Since I cannot find any option in the preferences I have no idea why I don't see the screen. Can anybody help? -- Dierk Haasis [DH² Publishing] The Bat 5.3.4.1 (BETA) on Windows 7 6.1 7601 Service Pack 1 Chat info upon request Everybody loves a winner, but when you lose, you lose alone.
