There was some discussion about how very large plugins with lots of methods could lead to thrashing but I don't recall a lot of the details of how RB does it's thing. Basically if you have tons and tons of methods/classes/controls to parse on start up RB tries to load it all up and make some kind of table (or something) for the autocomplete and lor knows what else so it can eventually compile things. The more items (classes, methods, etc) in the plugin the more memory required for Rb to do it's thing. And that can, in some circumstances, lead to thrashing because you're out of memory so things have to be swapped to disk. Or something like that. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
