Hallo,
first, i used to not shut down my PC and use Suspend to Disk instead.
On searching, why my PC is so slowly after some time, i seen in the Tast Manager, that Workrave used more then 200.000K. After quit and restart, it was about 15.000k (V. 1.9.1).
Today i installed Version 1.9.2, but seems to have the same issue. It started with 16.xxxK and inbetween, while i wrote this text, it increased to 17.080K. As the first break appears it was 17.188! and after it 17.264K.

Please, help, i need this program, but i also need a PC which respond without long waiting times.

The 200.000K can be explained by a memory leak in the audio player in 1.9.1. This bug is fixed in 1.9.2.

The 17.000K doesn't worry me. Workrave on my PC is using 10MB after two days with a peak memory usage of 19MB.

Please keep monitoring the memory usage and let me know if it keeps increasing. Thanks!

Memory usage appears to be fairly constant in 1.9.2. Please reopen this bug when you see excessive memory usage in 1.9.2+ Thanks.
