Re: [racket-users] high memory usage of gui app

[Matthias Felleisen]

What you see is the basic memory needed to load and run the gui framework. 

[[ FWIW, Racket uses generational collection. ]]

Re: [racket-users] high memory usage of gui app

[Michael Titke]

I have written a little card game Open Flowers which needed about the 
same amount of memory.


My guess is that amount of memory is just the "fuel memory" the engine 
needs from one garbage collection cycle to the next. Traditional 
mark&sweep stop-the-world garbage collection seems to come to an end 
nowadays as far as the performance of modern applications is concerned. 
The faster the machine the more memory it needs between the cycles - the 
more memory the application uses the longer it takes to mark&sweep ...

[racket-users] high memory usage of gui app

[Martin DeMello]

I have a small GUI app that is taking up a lot of memory - 135MB even when
run from a compiled executable and 235MB when run via "racket gui.rkt". Is
this expected? If not, could someone please take a quick look and see if
I'm doing something obviously wrong?
