OK, I can see that, but then, since all that memory is loaded, shouldn't that cover making a number of adjustments? Loading the 40mb file uses 640mb of memory, but after a few adjustment layers and some healing brush activity, I'm over 1gb of used memory, and several times I've gone over 1.4gb of ram memory, and into scratch disk territory. That extra 500mb+ of memory doesn't seem to be doing anything useful.
