Its a garbage of data that stay unused in memory: how i reduced my memory usage to 50mb(warrior)
1. Backup your addons folder and delete all;
2. Download last ace updater:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...roup_id=178751 , it is a amazing tool managing all aces addons, install after download;
3. Open your Ace Updater;
4. Go to
http://www.wowace.com/wiki/Ace_Alter..._Common_Addons and look for alternatives ace addons;
5. Mark in Ace Updater the addon you like;
6. In file menu on Ace Updater chose: --> install updated/marked addons--> with externals , (or just hit F12 key)
SOME TIPS:
1a. Enable Auctioner for just one char the money char if you dont have make one put here in a great city like thunder bluf (AH and Mail are very near) auctioner can consume 20mb+ memory sometimes...
2a. FUBARS addons consume much but much memory, so be carefull with it;
3b. A nice way to know how much memory and wich one is getting is install !Warmup addon, find it in internet i dont remember where i downloaded, but use it and after you monitor(just type /warmup in chatbox, the window is scrollable by mouse whell) delete warmup to optimize your folder.
Ok, GL!
