Memory consumption

[Michael Chansky]

If you want to accurately track the amount of memory the app is using you
can run "perfmon" and watch the process's "Private Bytes".  (You can also
use the "Counter Logs" snap-in to keep a log file of memory usage, which
sure beats trying to watch Task Manager).
Window's description: "Private Bytes is the current size, in bytes, of
memory that this process has allocated that cannot be shared with other
processes."  This will not decrease when you minimize the application.
