Ram usage

[jakoss]

App is great, it's doing what it's supposed to do. But when i look a this:

It makes me question this quote from your readme:

Small resource footprint, minimal User Interface.

Don't take it as offence, i know electron have it's rights and a lot of people have enough memory to run it. But it's kinda unfair if you advertise small resource footprint when it's just.. not.

This kind of software, if written in something native, could take 0,5 MB of ram? I think we can go even lower than this.

Well its running a full chrome +nodejs under the hood, can't really expect to take less than 500mb of ram...

I know WHY it's the case. I'm just pointing out that it's unfair to advertise it with small resource label ;-)

Thanks for your comments and the heads-up on resource usage on Windows. We'll continue trying to keep the resources required to a minimum (and this is still a beta), but are restricted by what Electron provides as overhead.
