KeepSafe memory usage
Monday, September 12, 2005 by Thomas Thomassen | Discussion: ThinkDesk
I was just wondering what KeepSafe's normal memory usage is? On my system it has been running at 18-19MB. I only have three filetypes configured to be kept safe. It just struck me to be a little high compared to the other media related products that features graphics and sound. But then again, I really don't know how much memory is required to monitor files. So I am asking you lot out there, what's KeepSafe running at for you?

That does sound abnormal. We will look into the memory usage as its usage should be low and remain low.

I have had KeepSafe running since Saturday. I haven't turned of my computer since then, only put it in hybernate. I noticed the memory usage on Sunday I think, but it has been stable since then.
p.s. I found a couple more strings not localized: the strings in the context menues when you rightclick a file.

I've been using [probably] an earlier version...for a month or two.....current mem load is 1.6 meg [revision.exe].....set to protect/backup any '.doc' files...

I'll be going to England tomorrow so I'll shut down the computer then. I'll see how it behaves when I start up. I will check back in a day or so. Any program out there to monitor the memory/cpu usage of spesific programs? i.e. a monitor widget only for spesific processes?

Right'o! I'm back in England now. I just lanched my laptop and KeepSafe is running at 6MB. I will install it on my desktop tomorrow and see how it works there.
