Is this a RAM hog?

Feedback Type:  Commentary

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

Recommend Product: YES

I have used version 1.x for a very long time and love it. However, I never upgraded to 2.x (or now, 3.x) because I feel that I didn't need all of the added features. (I would concur with the person who requested a light version). However, this is all moot as long as the program doesn't use tons of RAM or CPU cycles. Now, I see "built-in web server" and I can't help but think that this version will truly use lots of RAM. Can anyone enlighten me on this? How much RAM does it use?

Is this a RAM hog? - PeterNLewis

According to Activity Monitor, on my Mac currently, Keyboard Maestro and Keyboard Maestro Engine and Keyboard Maestro Web Server currently show use of 0.0 CPU and 8.5Meg, 8.3Meg and 1.3Meg of real memory.

For comparison, some other real memory uses: Activity Monitor: 14Meg, DragThing: 16Meg, GrowlHelperApp: 17Meg, KeyCue: 15Meg.
