I just upgraded to the lastest build and have noticed each browser window is now taking almost 3 times as much memory as the previous build we were using.
When a window is launched a new rundll process is started which initially consumes 150mbs of ram.
In the past the multi-dll build remedied this problem, is there any way we can get a new multi-dll build for the latest update, or are there any other memory reduction techniques that can be applied since the latest update?

Hi,
The new version should not consume singnificantly more memory than the old single DLL build version. The memory that the multi-DLL build for the old version was able to save was at the cost of bigger DLL files. The save was significant because the extra memory used was duplicated in each rundll child process thus it grows as you open more pages. The new build no longer duplicate this part in multiple rundll process. Instead it keeps such data in one process and share them between all process. This may cause one DLL to use more than what it used before, but the overall memory usage and performance should be close the old multi-DLL build. As such we no longer make multi-DLL build for the new version.
If what you see is significantly different than this, you can PM us with a test page and we will be more than happy to look further.
Thanks!
