    Resolved [RESOLVED] [2008] Secondary Process Has 50k Mem Usage, but does nothing

    Hey, I have a solution with a main project which runs, as well as a secondary project, which runs, the secondary project monitors the first, doing almost nothing... with little variables declared at all...

    Yet it uses 50k memory usage, and none of those variables are multi-dimensional arrays, so I wonder what could be causing this? there's reason for my main app to have 57k, but not for this secondary app of mine to have 54k, as I've said, it does almost nothing...

    Can anyone explain this to me?

    Cheers

    If I recall what has been posted in the numerous previous threads on this topic, Task Manager displays the amount of memory allocated to a process, not the amount of memory currently in use by a process. You may be able to reduce that number by setting the MaxWorkingSet property for the Process but I have never researched that so I'm not really sure.
