High Background RAM Usage #318

Closed SiddharthManthan closed 1 year ago

SiddharthManthan commented 1 year ago

I added a few folders to watch. CompactUI starts with windows boot. It runs in background and consumes around 85MB of RAM. It is a significant amount. Is there a way to make it consume less ram. If not then how do I prevent it from running ? (granted it won't compress new files that are added).

85MB of RAM is nothing, this is not 1998.

It's not doing anything 90% of the time anyway (It's the CPU usage that matters and that's nearly always at 0%). Windows will automatically compress the RAM usage if needed and send it to the page file.
