Hello,

I'm writing an application that uses java sound. After a few minutes of use the footprint is around 50 Megabytes and can go as high as 70 M. Should I be worried about this? Its a pretty simple program that is usually the largest one running on my machine.

The following program uses about 37 M when the deluxe soundbank is installed. All it does is open a Synthesizer and display a JFrame. Any way to reduce the memory used by java sound applications?

import javax.swing.*; import javax.sound.midi.*; public class Test { public static void main( String[] args ) { try { Synthesizer synth = MidiSystem.getSynthesizer(); synth.open(); } catch( MidiUnavailableException e ) { } JFrame frame = new JFrame( "Test" ); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE ); frame.setVisible( true ); } }
