You're doing something wrong ;-) (ok, I know it was an exaggeration) While debugging another Lazarus instance, the host Lazarus has 62MB VM (56MB RSS), with a dozen open files and some forms. And I wouldn't be surprised if more than half of it is occupied by CodeTools tree. gdb unfortunately takes 136MB. > Lets just hope and pray that Lazarus doesn't one day get the > "performance" of Eclipse IDE.
