Well you've blown my speed/ram theory!! I'm only on 2.6 GHz/512 Mb meself
:(
I get hanging before major compiles - but my projects are relatively small.
On closing the IDE - if you watch the process' memory usage in Task
Manager - it doesn't hang, but the RAM and virtual memory is slowly released
as everything is cleaned up/disposed.
I've just had a good look at MS and the KB, and nothing I can find about
this :(
