Why does iTunes use upwards of 70 megs of ram when it is minimized to my system tray playing music?
-- Update --
I understand that iTunes is a resource hog :) What I'm trying to find out, is what part of iTunes is using all that ram. Is it the music library? If I have a smaller music library, will it use less ram? Is it loading all the Album Artwork into ram for some dumb reason?
Additionally, is there any recommendations on what someone could do to reduce the amount of ram it is using?
