If you want to check it's memory usage, just pop up Task Manager and click
the Performance tab.  Write down how much memory you're using at 9:30 or
whenever you start trading, write down how much you're using when you stop.
If there's a big difference, or if you notice it creeping up all day,
chances are it's a leak.  Be aware of what other apps you're running.  We
wouldn't want to falsely accuse Omega of leaking memory.

But, if you do have leaks, you might be able to run a long time with 2Gigs
to pollute with garbage. Sure is easier than fixing the code...

They seem to be admitting TS is a *real* memory hog :-).
