on a 1Gb windows XP install that's 25% of total memory.- greedy.
If it were at that level only when working it would be less of an issue, but the fact that it never returns un-needed RAM when it reverts to idling is suspicious.

especially as a complete exit & restart will take me down from 217MB to...let's see... 100MB... now if I download some metadata --- up to 124MB.

it maybe loads metadata.db into RAM but that's only 2.5mb on my PC
