BT5 RAM consumption

[0x536e5a]

Hi,

BT4 was using like ~200MB ram and now BT5 ~600MB.

Is there any chance (DYI methods?) to lower the RAM consumption?

Hm interesting, did You turn off effects or not? (VirtualBox/Vmware) and x86 / x64 ?

I am running both of them in 32 bits, hard drive install. No effects turned down !

It's time to upgrade your memory.
This is not a BT issue but rather a compatibility issue from upstream.
If upgrading is not an option then you may need to look into a more suitable distro. But in all honesty starting the x server is going to take up a bit of resources, and since the majority of tools are command line there should be no real problem.
