Pouchy demo

Fixed

  • Much lower memory use. Pouchy now uses about 3–5 MB in Task Manager while it waits in the tray (it was over 100 MB), and around 60 MB with the pouch open (it was 130–250 MB).
    • The release .exe is no longer internally compressed. A compressed single-file app unpacks about 80 MB of its own code into memory on every launch. Downloads are now a zip instead (about 70 MB).
    • Pasted and dropped pictures stay on disk at full resolution. Only a small thumbnail is kept in memory, and the full picture loads only when you copy, drag, preview, share or OCR it. A 4K screenshot used to hold about 33 MB for as long as it sat in the pouch.
    • After the pouch hides, Pouchy compacts its memory and returns unused pages to Windows.
    • The mascot's looping animations stop while the pouch is hidden.
