Hi,
I made an extensive search here in the Photoshop folder but did not find any info about my question, which is:
I have a Strange behaviour which I never had with PS 7.0.1.
I have allocated about 90% of my RAM 1.5GB to CS. I open the programm and open an image. Immediately CS tells me that, according to the file size eg. 101MB, that 974MB are already used. Here PS 7.0 only says 178MB are used.
Now I begin to work on the image and of course as it should be the scratch size increases and when having reached 1.27GB of course as it should be begins to use my harddrive (external 120GB Iomega Firewire).
Now comes the strange thing.
I open a 77KB, YES 77.000byte JPG image, and CS tells me immediately that from the 1.27GB 594MB, Yes 584 Megabyte are used, for a ridiculous 77KB JPG image?
There must be something wrong or has it to do something with the vcache of WIN XP PRO.
I never had this behaviour with PS 7.0.1.
What is wrong in my setup?
regards Rainer
