kalpik · 27-08-2005, 06:23 PM

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!

Vishal Gupta · 27-08-2005, 09:32 PM

Guys.. Yaar there is a limit of using RAM for a applicatino like that .. Even firefox with 17 tabs opened is using 28 MB and
At that time I was just signed in .. no PM, no chat.. I have mentioned that already..

Right now its using 18MB .. hmm..

theraven · 29-08-2005, 09:19 PM

ram usage by yahoo depends on version and usage
45, tho a high figure, is somehow very normal ..
