Memory question active program

[Mike Bonner]

My guess would be that windows is swapping it out.  The fix might be as
simple as a send in time loop.  Have it do some little bit of nothing every
few minutes.  (For all I know, just having the send in time refresh itself
might be enough)
If its the revspeak portion that is causing the issue, i'm not sure how to
keep it from being swapped out, but there's probably a way.
