I just happened to see the resource meter and foudn that ymessenger is using more than 42 MB ram.. earlier I used to think that its MSN messenger which is heavier, it was using only 15 MB !

Guys. please post ur messenger usage..
PS: I was only running ymessenger.. no chat window - nothing.. btw.. I have latest Yahoo messenger !

[Netjunkie]

me using yahoo 7 (IND). currently 2 pm windows open. It uses only 20 MB. Are you people using Beta ?

[kalpik]

No windows open. Not even the main window. Its just signed in and in the system tray. Its using 29 MB at this time. It varies actually. between 30-50 MB. Depends on how much RAM u hvae installed too. (If u have more RAM, it does not page and takes more RAM). I have 512 MB RAM btw. And im using version 7.0.0.437. Latest!

At that time I was just signed in .. no PM, no chat.. I have mentioned that already..

[theraven]

ram usage by yahoo depends on version and usage
45, tho a high figure, is somehow very normal ..
dun worry
switch messengers if u have too much of a problem with this
try gaim if u will
