My memory usage for a blank OpenOffice Writer document is 41,356 K. That is not as much as awrinkler repoterd, but it does seem like alot for a blank document. Mozilla, with all components loaded is only 304,136 K and that is after using it for a while. I say this is an enhancement issue related to memory footprint. I am using build 673 on WinXP AMD AthlonXP 1700+ with 512MB RAM. This seems to be a cross-platform issue so Platform and OS may be updated. I also think this is the wrong component. I am moving this to a more appropriate component. By they way, I see this with 643c. No takbar button appears until 20000 K and the program is not usable until 61000 K. API is definitely the wrong component, framework is a little better. Calling this a "defect" is not correct, I guess. Matthias, can you comment on that? Changing subcomponent from 'www' to 'code', though this is not directly related to 'framework' code. But I think, we have no better component than 'framework' for tracking issues of this kind. Issue type of 'request for enhancement' is surely appropriate, though I personally would have no problem in accepting this as a 'defect'. In order to fix this issue, several things need to be redesigned (and this is where I tend to agree to a 'defect' in the current design), so that a target of 'OOo 2.0' seems appropriate. Thus, I'm accepting to take care of this issue. Adding description from issue 14147, marking that as duplicate: I would like to see an option to allow OO to run without using so much RAM. Currently, when I use my Win2K machine, OO preloads about 35 megabytes of program into RAM. This is ok on my newer machines at home. At work, however, where we have some older machines running win 98 first edition and win 95, this is a problem. We are using machines with 32 and 48 megabytes of RAM total. Now, OO still runs on these machines, but they swap like crazy and are very slow and jerky. It would be neat if you could figure out a way to get OO to work without using so much in the way of system resources. By the way, I noticed that StarOffice 6.1 beta uses about 10 megabytes less RAM than OO 1.1 beta *** Issue 14147 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Hi all, Further progress in this area and the tasks to achieve that progress are now tracked under issue 20269 as a meta task. Issue 20269 has a higher priority than this one, and I'm owning it as well. Therefore I'm going to close this issue as duplicate to issue 20269 (which will be recorded in there as well, so no information is lost).
