I notice that the size of my slimserver.pref file is over 75Mb! Does that sound correct? I assume something is very wrong! checkVersionInterval: 1 = ... checkVersionInterval: 86400 = There's loads of other groups of lines, such as plugin_biography_cache: 999999 = I guess that SlimServer has dumped the prefs to file, but something initialised the data structures, and all blank entries have gone into the file. Maybe this is one reason why the memory footprint for SlimServer is high, because the data structures have been initialised statically, and aren't using memory dynamically? My slim.exe process is currently using 92Mb. _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
