Normal
I thought it explained it well. Does your system have ample spare memory? If so, then this is normal DotNet behaviour.Is it causing you any problems?To test, you can try turning of virtual memory (not recommended for XP for the resons I have just explained) and see if MP's memory usage decreases.There is a very recent post where people have told stories of tiny DotNet apps that use >20Mb ram and similar. I suggest a search for further information.FWIW, I used to get around 50Mb of memory usage in MP before .2rc3.Edit: actually, I just read Rybbers thread he linked to. It looks like that is an issue with the DVR-MS files, since WMP also crashes when trying to play them.

FWIW, I used to get around 50Mb of memory usage in MP before .2rc3.
