the program tends to eat memory when you heavily use it, let me give you a picture of what I mean
I save every thread on 4chan that catches my interest, at some point the reposts start to overtake the new images to a point that this is a viable option, thy im getting close to the edge of I need some delete functionality for telling me what the file was deleted for. that aside, right now, over the coarse of 2 months I have created around 6400 watchers, adding somewhere around 150-200k images, almost none of them are displayed, with around 100k displayed.
the 100k displayed images takes about 1.5-2gb, I know this from the time I culled the watchers, my current session is 4.3gb and bloats out to 6.5gb on saves.
I have absolutely no idea what takes ram, if they were all current watchers, ok, I would believe that, but from experience current watchers for all the threads adds up to around 500mb or less, so for some reason, the program is using an ungodly amount of ram for reasons that are unclear because just storing all of the the data in text form could not possibly add up to over 20mb much less what I estimate at being over 2gb with a doubling in save.
I should also note that I come from a session that was hitting 14gb on startup and when a save happened would bloat to 18+gb
depending on where hdev is focusing, memory reduction has many different ways to happen.
