This is weird, explorer.exe uses 1.5MB more ram with all the fancy goodies OFF than ON.


Anyone else think this is a bit lolWTHrific

    I haven't used the explorer shell in awhile, and I really don't miss it either.

    Taskman, explorer.exe went from 19mb usage to 20.5 after turning off all the pretties.

    I know! All the stuff's been moved off of your screen and stored in memory instead!


    ...what?

    it's because you're a communist
