Hi there, I am new to Apple development, and new to this list. I have two questions about memory on OS X.
1. NSUserDefaults seems to allocate 16 MB memory at load. I can't see myself using a megabyte—let alone 16 of those. It would be very interesting to know why it allocates so much, and if there is a way to encourage NSUserDefaults to grab less. 2. I create a couple of CoreAnimation layers that I think are large (5120x2880 px). I would expect that to occupy 450 MB (5120*2880*32/1024/1024) of memory. But instead it only takes up one fourth of that. What is this sorcery? -- Henrik Granaas-Helmers _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
