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"?

Memory usage - TB vs Thunderbird 17.0
Hi Everyone, I just checked the memory usage of TB with Thunderbird 17.0 in Windows 8. I have used both for my Gmail IMAP account, and I was amazed at the difference! TB only uses 30 MB of memory and Thunderbird uses 144 MB of memory. Very interesting (even if I don't understand where the difference comes from). Ritlabs is doing something very efficiently! As always, thanks to the Ritlabs team for this excellent work. -- Take care, Bob -- I am here to only be of help. I am here to represent the One who sent us.
