The memory usage is not reduced. It's just that most of the physical
memory (RAM) is swapped to the hard drive.
In the task manager. try adding the "VM Size" column to the Process tab.
When you minimize your app, you'll see that the "Mem Usage" goes down
but not "VM Size". "VM Size" means the Virtual Memory of the process.
It's called virtual because it represents both the physical memory the
process currebntly uses and the memory that is swapped to disk.
hope this helps

Hello,
I have a simple c# app.
At first launch, It takes 30Mb once launched.
If i minimize it, it only takes 1380 Kb
If i maximize it back, it stays near to 2600 Kb,
and never goes back to 30Mb.
How do you explain this ?
