3.0 Memory Issues

[WildCelt]

Hi all,

I have been having a problem with 3.0, and was wondering if anyone else is experiencing it. When I encode something (anything) in 3.0 and shut it down, the program doesn't remove itself from RAM. Sometimes it takes up well over 100MB, and just sits there. If I open up a new instance of the program and encode, it takes up another 100MB chunk. I have to open the task manager and kill them manually.

I wrote Pegasys support for this problem and was given some goofy story about the program being optimized for Intel processors. I am running an Athlon xp 2600+. I can understand optimization, but IMO a program not exiting from RAM when it should is a little more than an "optimization" problem.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Here's the rundown of my PC:
AMD Athlon XP 2600+
512MB PC3200 DDR
Windows XP pro SP2 RC2

Same here, very annoying. After using it I need to go and kill the process manually in task manager. Everytime.

Using P4 on Win2003.

Thanks for the reply. I emailed support and they initially blew me off. I emailed again and I was then told he would "give the information to the developers."
