3.75: low resource usage heaven
Audiosoft: Very nice work with this new version!
In my case the 10X less ram usage is an understatement  I went from 120mb
ram usage to 2 mb. That is 60X less ram usage: Which pleases me a lot of course!
it amazes me that there are no sacrifices concerning speed or stability as a result of this. Everything seems responsive and stable. Very impressive!
keep it up!

I too went from between 60-80 mb of RAM usage to 2 mb. So at my place, the new eJ uses 40 (!) times less RAM.
This really makes eJ outstanding to in the fields where system resources are alpha and omega.
I am thinking about the diskless solutions, we've discussed in the past, as well as other strange PC solutions running eJ. There is no other
competitor that can offer eJ's functionality without consuming huge amounts of RAM (like eJ used to do  ).

And the irony of it all is that even if they do demand as much resources as ej once did they still can't compare

The first words out of my mouth when I woke up this morning and checked the eJ site for updates were "Oh thank god." This has been at the
top of my wishlist for the program for what seems like ever. Thanks Audiosoft!
As a sidenote: It says that the tiling of albumart has been fixed, but I still can't seem to make it work. Is there anything I'm missing?
Something else that has to be checked/unchecked? [EDIT: Got it! Thanks guys!]

Ah? i don't know... Concerning to me, the image tiling work again right! Curious... maybe the tilling is thwarted by another option! Try
different combinations.

Glad you are all enjoying the improvements in v3.75. 
Sloan,
The tiling of the album art in the songlist will only work when the album list is closed and the 'Tile Album Art as Songlist Background'
option is enabled. Not sure what else it could be.

I love the low ram usage now. The thing I really really want I'm still crossing my fingers for though.  Better multi-monitor support.
The main thing is that the window flips monitors when you maximize it I just discovered too that if you right click on anything in the secondary
monitor the popup dialog bumps to the side of the primary, not letting you get to it at all.
