Thomas,

I don't know if it would hog more or not, I do believe wcCasino however
is a big hog.

One thing not to get confused with however is using utilities that tell
you how much memory a particular program uses. The problem is that many
of these utilities will tell you the combine memory use of all the *.dll
files used by the program.

You add all of this "memory usage" up and you don't have enough physical
or virtual memory available in many cases.

Basically I believe the only way to tell is by graphing it before launch
and after.
