Hi Ian,
Thanks for getting in touch. Unfortunately at the moment there are some performance/memory usage issues when using large databases. There should be a significant performance increase when version 3 appears, although I can't necessarily guarantee that it won't still use a lot of memory if you're working with very large databases. 700 megs does seem slightly excessive though.
We haven't published any information about version 3 as yet because we're just at the start of the project and are still trying to decide on the scope and feature set. What I can tell you is that it will feature completely new caching and parsing models which should improve its functionality greatly. Beyond that I really can't say at the moment, for which I apologise. Within the next couple of months we are planning to run a beta program for version 3, with the release being sometime in September if all goes well. If you're interested in being a beta tester for the new version please drop me a line at bartDOTreadATredHYPHENgateDOTcom.
Many thanks,
Cheers Bart, That's good to know. I've only experienced the 700meg hit once now, so I think it might have been a bug. Currently it sits at around 50-100meg depending on how many databases I'm connecting to which I can cope with.
V3 sounds interesting, I'll drop you an email a little later on.
Cheers

memory usage
Hi, I've noticed SP2 is using a lot of memory. We do have lots of large databases, and I tend to have a number of query analyser windows open at once, but I've hit 700megs of memory usage at times ...
