HiEditor

[Ossa]

I tried a 240MB ISO image not so fast (it seems to scan the whole file in one go - formatting?) but it used 6.6MB of memory (not the 140k again, but also not as much as Stan's text file).

I then tried windows.inc (1MB text) - very fast - but it used 7.6MB.

I then tried the 240MB ISO again and it used the same as windows.inc (7.6MB).

I don't really mind - I never need to open files this large - so it works great so far as I'm concerned. I'm running Win XP SP2.

I'm assuming that the "memory usage" that windows is reporting includes cached memory or memory allocated by the system (and not by the application itself.) Hopefully someone more knowledgeable can expound on this.

Hi all,

1.Memory usage: I map 128k of the file to memory, scan those 128k and then unmap. I then map/scan/unmap the next 128k etc etc.

@Stan Hebben: it is read and write for HiEdit too

@Ossa: Non-ascii files should take a bit longer to load, this is normal

Thanks to all for your kindness to test and report. I expect the next version to be even better.

Ok, good to know. Why does the editor write?

I write to a temp file and use that instead of the original file.
