Yeh, we were seeing browser memory usage jump from about 40Mb to over 300Mb.
We already split images/resources up (into modules/plugins with specific functionality e.g. Search, RSSFeed, AppFramework etc, etc) - for example in one bundle there are 17 images (9 of those are for a DecoratorPanel, 5 are icons) and one css file. Four of those images have the RepeatStyle.Horizontal attribute. For example, when one of the tiled images is 62x60px the sprite ends up being 163000 px wide when I change it to 500x60px it leaves it out of the sprite... but the sprite still ends up being over 5000px wide - still unnecessarily wide. Is there no way I can tell the compiler "don't make a sprite wider than 500px"? Thanks for the replys btw.
