Real memory soars past 800mb after opening preferences

[mudflapper]

Hi all,

I searched and searched for posts discussing this issue and couldn't find anything, so here goes.

Every time I open Transmission Preferences, it takes at least 10 seconds for the prefs window to appear, then Activity Monitory shows Transmission's real memory usage soaring past 800mb. This happens whether I have active torrents or no torrents at all. I've uninstalled using AppZapper and reinstalled 1.51, but that doesn't do a thing. I quit all apps, menu extras, etc., but that made no difference, either.

I created another user and tried it there as well, same thing.

I also installed the latest nightly build. Same problem.

Any ideas?

iMac Core Duo, 20"

Hey again,

Just wondering if I'm the only person on Earth with this issue. Anyone? Bueller? Frye?

Do you see anything weird in the Console logs? You could try it on a fresh install (on another disk or something) and see if the problem still exists.
