Hah, mIRC was a long time ago! I'm a bit nostalgic. :)
But is it really true that vanilla mIRC consumes less RAM than calc.exe...?
That'd be impressive, if I could believed that!
- Sohcahtoa82 4y agoJust popped open Task Manager... calculator.exe is at 74 MB working set, 24 MB Memory (private set), 50 MB Memory (shared working set), 48 MB commit size. mIRC.exe is at 31 MB working set, 13 MB Memory (private set), 18 MB Memory (shared working set), 38 MB commit size. Doesn't matter which value you use for "How much memory does this program use?". mIRC is smaller in all of them.
- daveloyall 4y agoThat's not `calc.exe`. I think windows doesn't ship with calc.exe anymore. The fair comparison would be the last version of mIRC that was current when the last version of calc.exe was shipped. I don't believe that mIRC would use less RAM than that... Certainly not when you were actually USING it! (including reconfiguring the size of your scrollback, for example..)
- layer8 4y agoYou can still get it from https://win7games.com/#calc https://win7games.com/#calc (via WinAero).
- assttoasstmgr 4y agoThe OG calc.exe still ships with the LTS[B,C] versions of Windows 10.
