Wow, that is using a LOT of ram. Try upgrading to beta 177 and see if there is a change, maybe it is because you were serving something out?

you are using too much virtual folders, thats why your HFS is using so much RAM...  ;)

Try to convert all the folders to REAL and you will see big difference... even your start-up with HFS will be much faster...

last year I was using virtual folders too, but after i face this problem I've switched them to REAL and now everything is ok  ::)

I have noticed this as well but it only happens to me when hfs is serving a request with a lot of macro's. what template are you using and approximately how many items do you have in a normal folder.

There is not only a difference with real and virtual folders.

A lot of macros doesn't matter if they need not to be invoked repeatadly. But you will notice if you have huge macros in the files dependent section!

What especially increases memory usage (and cpu power) are the use of ?recursive and search. Also  the construction of single pages with large filelists, especially if they contain images and thumbnails eat up a lot of memory.

With normal use and pages with not to much content, memory usage in my case is between 5 and 15 Mbytes, but creating huge lists with recursive it can go to 50...100 Mbytes!

What might be a bug, is if hfs uses a lot of memory to build a page, it doesn't release the memory which is not more used. So, after a recursive search, hfs still retains for example 40 Mbytes, even if all clients are disconected!

So i think if you have some users are requesting a recursive listing or search, your some hundred Mbytes uses by hfs is completly normal.

I guess HFS will release the memory over time. A while ago we had a discussion here in the forums about large file lists. AFAIK the outcome was that HFS caches them for a while.

If it's not a simple coincidence in time, it seems that hfs doesn't release used memory while the hfs windows is on screen. Once closed the hfs window and remaining only the tray-icon, memory is released.

that's probably a bug, but i need to know much more than this to find it and fix it.
are you able to reproduce it?

that's not HFS. Any program behaves this way, AFAIK. That's how Windows manage RAM. I guess it swap/release RAM when you minimize a program because it's supposed you are going to use another one.
