desktop-application

Hello,

I am developing a software using C# 2.0 which uses about 200MB of memory and occasionally high CPU. The problem is, when i am leaving my machine idle for about 20-30 mins with the application running, after i come back and try to use the application, it freezes for about 2 mins, then becomes interactive.

Why does this happen? Is there any way to avoid this?

Thank you all.

Regards,

-Rakib

In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
