Possibly memory leak?
I purchased Choosy yesterday, and it's been running since. However, I nearly fell off my chair when I switched to Task Manager, and see that Choosy is at the top of the list with 515MB Real Memory used.. That's about 100MB more than FireFox with 28 tabs open!
Are you aware of any memory problems?
Fixed in v1.0.1

I have even now 200-400Mb Memory usage with 1.0.1

I completely deleted Choosy and installed version 1.0.1 and still it has a huge memory leak for me. After opening a couple of links it uses around 100-150 MB.
I so wanted to buy this app but with such a huge memory overhead it's just not working for me.

Is it possible that you're still running the old version of the helper app? I've been running version 1.0.1 since before I released it yesterday and using it heavily and the memory usage peaked at around 15Mb and has dropped back to 8Mb when idle.

Since my last comment, I've opened 3 more links via Choosy, and memory is now at 435MB.

Hey George, Thanks for quickly responding to this. I installed the update this morning, and I've just checked the memory usage, it's up at 360MB Real Memory. I've only launched via Choosy maybe 6 times or so today. Are you sure you got the memory leak? Or is there another one lurking around?

Just thought I'd mention this was my idea, so you can reply back to me if you have any further questions
