Hello all,

A Delphi application with only one form and nothing else takes
6MB memory if it's compiled with Delphi 2005, or 3.6MB if compiled
with Delphi 5. That's very big for an application that does nothing.
However, if I minimize the window to task bar, the memory usage
drops to below 1MB. Then I activate the window again, the memory
usage goes up to 1.xMB but does not go up all the way to 6MB or 3.6MB.
This works quite mysteriously.

A VB app that I use with skinned forms and does a lot of things
takes below 3MB memory. When it's minimized to tray icon, it takes
600KB.

So my question is, is there any way to reduce footprint in memory?
It feels strange that the real app in VB that needs the VB runtime
libraries takes less memory then an empty Delphi app.

Jack
