Works Well But Hogs Your Memory

Feedback Type:  Review

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 6-12 months

Recommend Product: NO

This product worked very well removing programs and their associated files. However, the downside is that the feature that watches installs on your computer has a program that is always running in the background. That program hogs your computer's memory and slows down other processes. I think this is ridiculous. For that reason, I deleted this app from my computer. Otherwise, I would continue using it. If you install it, open the Activity monitor that is in your Utility Folder. Notice how much activity is coming from a program that should not even be running when the program itself is not launched.

Works Well But Hogs Your Memory - dsphelps

Yes, it has to stay running to use the logging feature, but to tell you the truth, I didn't notice a problem with it hogging memory, even on a G3 ibook, and that's pretty good.
