15Fixed memory usage problems in KA/Pi: 17Fixed memory usage problems in KA/Pi:
16When loading data KA/Pi did load the file data twice. 18When loading data KA/Pi did load the file data twice.
17Example: 19Example:
18 A 600k file did consume 1200k memory during loading process. 20 A 600k file did consume 1200k memory during loading process.
19 This is fixed, it does now consume only 600k during loading process. 21 This is fixed, it does now consume only 600k during loading process.
20When saving data KA/Pi did consume a lot of memory for the data parsing during the save process. 22When saving data KA/Pi did consume a lot of memory for the data parsing during the save process.
21This is fixed. 23This is fixed.
22Example: 24Example:
23 Before saving a 600k file KA/Pi did consume 21.7 Meg of Ram. 25 Before saving a 600k file KA/Pi did consume 21.7 Meg of Ram.
24 When saving KA/Pi did consume 28.6 Meg of Ram. That causes a crash on the Zaurus because there was no memeory left in the system. 26 When saving KA/Pi did consume 28.6 Meg of Ram. That causes a crash on the Zaurus because there was no memeory left in the system.
25 Now KA/Pi is consuming on saving the same data 22.0 Meg of Ram during the save process. 27 Now KA/Pi is consuming on saving the same data 22.0 Meg of Ram during the save process.
26Note: The memory usage of KA/Pi after the data is loaded/saved has not changed. 28Note: The memory usage of KA/Pi after the data is loaded/saved has not changed.
27The saving of data may be a bit slower now. 29The saving of data may be a bit slower now.

29Fixed memory usage problems in KO/Pi: 31Fixed memory usage problems in KO/Pi:
30When KO/Pi did save the data to file, it did not release the used buffers after saving. 32When KO/Pi did save the data to file, it did not release the used buffers after saving.
31The used buffer was released after saving the next time, but there was new buffer space allocated again on that save operation. 33The used buffer was released after saving the next time, but there was new buffer space allocated again on that save operation.
32This is fixed. 34This is fixed.
33Example: 35Example:
34 When saving a 400k file KO/Pi do now use 400k less memory now. 36 When saving a 400k file KO/Pi do now use 400k less memory now.

36Optimized memory usage in KO/Pi Agenda view: 38Optimized memory usage in KO/Pi Agenda view:
37KO/Pi is storing some paint information in extra buffers for faster repainting of the agenda view. 39KO/Pi is storing some paint information in extra buffers for faster repainting of the agenda view.
38These buffers were not made smaller (i.e. downsized) because of performance reasons. 40These buffers were not made smaller (i.e. downsized) because of performance reasons.
39The handling of these buffers are now much smarter: 41The handling of these buffers are now much smarter:
40Two (of six) buffers are removed completely. 42Two (of six) buffers are removed completely.
41The remaing four buffers are now downsized after not using the agenda view for 45 seconds. 43The remaing four buffers are now downsized after not using the agenda view for 45 seconds.
42Such that the memory usage of KO/Pi is smaller now in general ( because 2 buffers are removed) and is much smaller when not using the agenda view. That is very important when using fastload for KO/Pi. 44Such that the memory usage of KO/Pi is smaller now in general ( because 2 buffers are removed) and is much smaller when not using the agenda view.

44Worst case example ( for a maximum size agenda content): 46Worst case example ( for a maximum size agenda content):
45 When resizing the agenda content to a large scale, KO/Pi did use 17Meg of mem ( and did not use less memory until it was stopped). Now KO/Pi is using on the same operation only 14.3 Meg of mem and after 45 seconds not using the agenda view it uses only 9.4 Meg of mem. 47 When resizing the agenda content to a large scale, KO/Pi did use 17Meg of mem ( and did not use less memory until it was stopped). Now KO/Pi is using on the same operation only 14.3 Meg of mem and after 45 seconds not using the agenda view it uses only 9.4 Meg of mem.

47When switching to an unused Agenda view now KO/Pi is upizing the buffers again. This takes less than a second. Such that switching to Agenda view (after not using it for more than 45 seconds) is now a bit slower. 49When switching to an unused Agenda view now KO/Pi is upizing the buffers again.
