How about we say "ok - there's a problem here, we should work on
getting OOo to be less piggy with the system resources"?
I can get OOo to run acceptably on an Athlon 500 with 384M RAM (with
256M it was occasionally a bit slow especially if I had other
applications up). I don't think the resource use is a problem, but if
future versions are more efficient I won't mind.
I would think most computers still in use now have at least 512M, if not
much more, RAM; am I wrong on this?
here a lot of computers that are not owned by computing/gaming
enthusiasts still have 64-256mb ram.
oo.org on 198mb is pretty slow and starts a loong time.
also oo.org is not the only application that is run, so it should try to
use as little memory as possible to leave space for other things.
even on my machine with 512mb of ram i try to avoid simply keeping
oo.org open as i tend to keep a lot of applications open at the same
time and oo.org is somewhat too greedyy ;) (even though a longer time is
required to open it)
