I seem to recall that the memory usage would increase/decrease as I maximized/minmized Max 2009.
Lately I’ve noticed that (when using Max 2010) the memory usage pretty much stays the same.

Right now Max is open and I chose ‘Reset’.....it’s hovering at 320,508K....

Is this normal/average behavior?

Thanks!
