0.39 usage

First... Thanks for a *great* player.

Just downloaded 0.39 and saw that the mem usage has accelerated enormously. 10 meg when I started it.

[update]  after playing awhile it has settled on 1.6 megs !!! Nice but why does it change so much?

Do you think that you could add support for cd's? Then I could use foobar for all my listening.

Once again, *great* program.

my foobar .39a needs 3 mb at startup and 4.2 when playing an mp3.

my winamp 2.81 needs 2.3mb when playing

anyway foobar is a great player. i don't care too much about some mbs.

funny, I was experiencing that same thing with 0.36 and 0.37.

However with 0.38  its at a nice 1400k. and minimised its at 1300k.

Task manager, processes tab, view menu, select columns, check virtual memory size, click ok. Check the VM size column as well as memory usage when making comparisons.
