| When I start windows, this hogs all of my resources for about 5 minutes taking mega-gobs of memory. Makes my machine very slow and even non responsive during that time. You can watch it decrease in memory size during this period (well over a gig, falling down to 11 megs). It keeps my hard drive very busy during this time, too. Probably necessary, but certainly an annoyance. | |||
