Hi All!
I installed Personal Jotter 1.01 and made the following observation:
Using TaskMan of Tracker, I watched the displayed memory with and witout PJ running. The difference is about 4 MB. This amount is enormous since it's about 50% of the avilable memory!
Can anyone reproduce this observation?
(Initially I wanted to know WHY PJ starts so slowly!)
Thanks |

Hmm..on my machine Personal Jotter seems to use 2MB, which seems a lot for a P800 app. Hopefully the developer will reduce this as part of the normal product development cycle.

It is in fact VERY annoying! Not only does it make all other apps slugish but PJotter itself runs very slow especially when the Word DB gets larger! In my case I have taught it approx. 250KB of words!
I had a discussion on another Forum (http://www.p800.info/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7691) and it seems that almost all PJava applications require a lot of RAM to (load PJava) run. So, I think as long as PJotter is written in Pjava it will continue to demand a high memory! This shows the limits of such devices as P800.
But what's in fact needed is a dictionary supported Handwritting recognition the way Apple Newton has and not a T9 similar approach!

Opera also uses a lot of memory. I think it's between 3-5mb ram. Which is quite annoying.
