Xolox uses all my RAM-solution
 

I noticed that Xolox eats computers memory on a frequent speed... so I installed Rambooster... Now Rambooster frees 100Mb of memory always when it goes below 32Mb.... works for me... no more freezes or sumthing...

good idea
 

Of course fixing XoloX so it won't do this would be better.

You are using Win9x/ME, right?

ram chewer
 

im using win2000 with 256mb ram and xolox chews up my ram
this would be a major fix to xolox

I'm using 2000 SP2 with Xolox and it doesn't eat my RAM at all.

I can leave it running all day with no problems and usage never goes above about 150MB.

I use W2K + SP2 with 256Mb SDRAM and XoloX is very greedy when I bring up the task manager :(

Something should be fixed in the next version I hope...

i'm having win2k SP2 320MB RAM and no problems with that

If you defrag more often (at least once a week) RAM won't be a problem with Xolox any more .

Defraging harddisk does solve your RAM problem??

May be there some magical tricks you don´t know... :D

Dont forget that Xolox ram usage is not depending on your CPU or operating system its depending of :

Number of search processed, number of directories and files shared, number of file you are downloading and uploading, your horizon, and most important : your bandwith and the BW setting.

If you have ram problems, try reducing the files shared to 1000, and reduce the BW setting.

To answer to your question about disk defrag :

Well no : disk defrag is not related to ram usage.

but ram fragmentation you can have.

Note : just rebooting, make a ram defrag

launch xolox immediately after booting, and wait 1 min before launching others apps.

Couldnt even run the program cause' it dropped my resources from 98% - 23% after defrag,scan disk...blah bla bla.I couldnt even close the opening window with tip to exit....three times.I have a powerful system also.Its chewing resources not ram.There is a difference.512mb of ram here with 98% resources should operate any program.Xolox is broke! :(

NitroRam
 

There is a progrgram out called NitrroRam that you can set it so whenever you are running out of RAM it will clean some stuff up so you can get it back. It is a great progrram for me. I have NEVER experienced any problems. Just goto yahoo.com and search for it.

memory leak
 

In my case (actually cases, since behavior seems to be the same with either 98 SE or 2K SP2) the higher I set the max upload speed, the faster my resources go away. Below a setting of 6, however, with my ADSL connection, I can run indefinitely without problems.
