MT5 memory usage and general performance.

 

Just a general observation. My MT5 uses nearly 500Mb of RAM compared with about 45Mb on MT4. I have exactly the same number of windows, and the same indicators on both.

MT5 takes about 20 seconds to start up, whilst MT4 is almost instant.

MT5 is, by comparison, very sluggish.

MT5 uses about 60% cpu, whilst MT4 uses around 20%

I have only noticed this poor performance on the latest build (243) but I can't prove this. Where can I find previous builds?
