How much memory does UltraSearch need?

Question / Problem

How much memory does UltraSearch need?

Answer / Solution

For fast search results UltraSearch does not use an index but uses the working memory (RAM) to store the file information. UltraSearch uses between 40 and 50 MB of RAM per 100,000 files/folders. In order to keep the amount of RAM required as small as possible, please select only the drives or folders you want to search in the drive list. If you deselect a drive, the file information for this drive will be deleted directly from the working memory.
