Question for you Adium users

[climhazzard85]

I just started using Adium, I love it except it seems to regularly use 45-60 megs of ram. Is this normal behavior? That's all, Thank you

Yikes! Although last time I compared it to iChat it uses less CPU, so I guess it evens out.

• 25 to 65 MB RSIZE is normal for Adium, depending on your usage.
• Remember to add the "iChat Agent" RAM usage to the "iChat" usage when considering iChat's RAM footprint. Generally, iChat and Adium use roughly equivalent amounts of RAM, with the caveat below
• The WebKit framework which ships with OS X 10.4.9 (on Intel at least, and probably on PPC), used by Safari and by Adium among other applications has a major memory leak. We haven't done tests with Safari 3.0 beta yet, but the problem is most likely fixed since the leaking objects' classes don't even exist in the current developer version of the WebKit frameworks.
