Visual Basic RAM question.

Hey guys, .NET users, do compiled programs in VB .net take up as much ram as they do in Visual Basic 6? I may be wrong but it seems like they take up a bit of ram... thanks!

Yes , .NET App eats up more memory than VB6 does . For some known & unknown reasons. :rolleyes:

Weird, i was hoping that issue was improved - what about application speed in general? I've read that load time can be seemingly long in .net. Is this true?

It's not that bad but it's highly depend on how good the machine is ! JIT compiler , GC , FW ..etc do affect application load and execution . I run XP , 2.4 Intel , 750 DDR , Gforce 4.0 with all this , it seems quite fast but not compared to VB6 Apps . ;)

my vs.net compiling time is about 5x more longer than vs6.0 it's horrible :rolleyes:

alright, thanks for the responses pirate... even though i'm a little disappointed in the answers :rolleyes: . Thanks though! Bye

well win95 will load about 50 times faster than win2k3 on my machine too, but if you think a little, you shouldnt be too angry about this difference in load time ;) why? you figure

I don't think so but why would you think it's faster ?:rolleyes:

didnt you get it?eeeh:D

windows 95 may load faster on a comp, but it's also OLDER and is LESS POWERFUL! well compare that to vb6 then

haha i see the point you were attempting to make but in my experience win95 loads slower than my xp. but then again i havn't tested with the same specs, either way its kind of a stretch :)
