v2.2.0-rc.7

🧪 NetSpeedTray 2.2.0-rc.7

Much less memory, same app. Thanks for testing!

Prereleases don't update in-app, and WinGet and the Store won't offer this one. Download Setup.exe or the portable zip below and install over rc.6, any earlier 2.2 prerelease or 2.1.7. If you're on a 2.2 prerelease, the running app closes itself and comes back. Your history and settings carry over.

What's new since rc.6

• Much less memory. On my PC Task Manager shows about 35-40 MB for NetSpeedTray instead of 75-90 MB, in every language. The more fonts you have installed, the bigger the saving.
• Only your language's font is loaded. It used to load every font installed on your PC the first time it measured text.
• Settings and the Monitor give their memory back when you close them, and Settings opens faster.
• A new font picker in Settings that shows each font in its own face and also applies weight and size.

Nothing was removed and the widget looks the same. A few Japanese, Chinese and Bengali characters now use the font Windows itself uses for that language.

What I'd love you to test

• Check Task Manager (Processes tab, Memory column) after the app has run a few minutes, then open and close Settings and the Monitor and check again.
• If your Windows is in Japanese, Korean, Chinese or Bengali: does everything in the widget, the tray menu, Settings and the Monitor look right?
• Try the new font picker (Settings → Appearance): pick a font, a weight and a size, and check the widget.

What's next

If this one's quiet for about a week, it ships as 2.2.0 through the in-app updater, WinGet and the Store.

Found something? Comment on #373 with a support bundle (Export support bundle at the bottom of Settings). Usernames, paths and IPs are stripped from it.
