I use Sublime daily exclusively for quick notes and as a scratch pad/clipboard. What I have started noticing recently and what worries me is that with only the most basic Markdown plugins it now uses 1 GB of RAM and is somewhat less snappy than it used to. I really hope it goes away soon but with other editors getting more resource-heavy, I am worried.



I have tens of files open in ST right now and it's using 16 MB of RAM. I'd suggest some tests without the plugins you are describing.

How is this useful if you want to use those plugins?
