Such threads always amaze me — because comparing "every metric" requires at least understanding what those metrics mean, but this is pure gold — comparing software such as calculator that has been just launched and that is unlikely to allocate any more memory ever to a networked software that has already deallocated all the pages it only needed at start up, but is not unlikely to allocate more if it starts being actively used 🤦
@newt
It's heavily implied here: "no input", but do they really expect for calculator to start allocating memory by gigabytes as soon as they start e.g. adding numbers up? 😲
Not that I don't think that recent versions of Windows Calculator aren't bloated — they sure are, but direct comparison only makes sense with similar kinds of software.
