just a follow-up question, did you monitor the memory usage of that application to see that 1) the memory usage does not go down to a certain level when the application is not doing any processing (aka idle). 2) the memory keeps on increasing. if the above is not true then your application might just be requiring that much memory. ciao! -- "Programming, an artform that fights back" Anuerin G.
