Wb4 Ram Usage

Is WB4 a big resource hog? Does anyone know how much ram it uses and if there are any noticable performance issues?

Thanks

Its as fast as Visual styles.

Just be sure to turn off visual styles when you use WB

MS should have programmed the themes service so it shuts off when you are not using it. =Þ

When using WB it is\might be a good idea to go into services.msc and shut off the themes service if memory is a concern to you. I put it permanently to disabled because I only use WB here.

I answered the question, run services.msc and go down to themes service, double click and click stop, or change the setting to disabled. Manual doesn't work with that service unfortunatly.

Oh sorry smoke, didn't realize you and contrasutra were talking about the same thing.

Thanks for the clarification.
