Indeed I was referring to the WM6 in general comment.

As for Windows Live (and other "pre-built" rom pieces) ... thats the best part of a kitchen. Its as simple as unchecking a box in mine. ... well, the next version that I'll release a little early, just to have a 2.17 kitchen available.

Wow I said I assumed, I'm not claiming facts:

It was a comparison I made when flashing back to WM5's latest AKU & WM6.

Same apps but benchmarking says something in WM6 is doing it, yes I check over and over, the results with WM5 were very consistent with the exception of 8 problem apps, WM6 was different each test apps or no apps.

WM6 no matter what takes at least 2-4mb a day from me, though I never had it drop to 10 or 8 MB like many others have had. WM5 actually recovered some program memory back after a few hours.

All in all I claim on a guess, Windows Live, as it was the only different app or factor that wasn't in my test.

It may be Windows Live. Its just a matter of removing it which I find myself.....stuck since its in the ROM.

I think many newcomers are failing to "Active Sync" stealing memory too, this sucks alot of resources throughout the day & did so on both benchmarks.
If you apply the "fake server " trick & end the schedule times you can do away with it.

Calm down Genjinaro, nothing personal. I've only been around a couple weeks, but I've seen a lot of people rant and rave that program x caused problem a only to be debunked. Frankly, most of us appreciate the clarifications (at least, we should). It's our responsibility as product owners to defend the products we use, otherwise companies tend to drop future support of those products.

As for Windows Live, I use Live all the time, and it's on my Today screen. In my case, installing the latest helped resolve my only leak experience. Once you install the latest, you can uninstall it, and it will be gone until the next hard reset. :)

Finally, yes, ActiveSync will definitely steal a bit of memory if you let it sync "as items are received" (not to mention the battery drain). It is definitely more sensible to schedule it less often.

It'll uninstall? Awesome, I'll have to try that.

yeah, scooter. I wasn't referring to you, chill.

That did it!!
 

That did it!! WHOO HOO!!!
Thanks much! I was reading the threads and found it in the Wiki about the touch dialer causing a memory leak. It tries to write to memory that is not in the Mogul. Makes sense. I decided to test it by installing it (and it alone) after a hard reset. Memory went down about .5MB every 5 minutes or so depending on what I was doing with the dialer.

That being said, I have come to realize after reading the forums here that EVERY device is different and this MAY NOT be a cure for everybody. I'm even more sure that there are lots of folks that are running the touch dialer without any problems. So.... It works for me!

Thanks again!

Awesome. Thanks for the update. :)
