Hi all,

I couldn't get any response on the PyObjC mailing list so trying here.

I've recently started developing PyObjC apps and my app memory usage shot off to 75MB. So I created a small Hello World app with just one NSWindow and the initial memory was 36MB. I'd assume this would be expected since the entire Python interpreter is running within the app it might take that much. So is it safe to assume that all PyObjC apps need a minimum of 30+M to work?

Versions:
Mac OS X 10.5.8

>>> print objc.__version__
2.2b2

Thanks,
Arif Amirani

Dunno whether that's a safe assumption, but that certainly matches my
experience.
