hi-
i wrote a program with java using eclipse and i think i remember it used
70,000k in the process list in windows in task manager. i understand that
there is some eclipse runtime overhead involved. i used swt, hibernate and a
few others.
do netbeans and swing take up less memory in general when creating and
deploying a gui with an embedded db where there isnt that much data
involved.
skype uses 34,000k and an editor that is kind of fancy uses 12,000k
(geany).
any advice on how i can reduce the "footprint" by selecting a different
environment or toools?
i am learning java (again) and trying to get better before creating my next
project.
it seems in comparison i have done something terribly wrong (to other
applications).
thanks,
