Holdem Manager Uses so many resources

[excalibur123123]

Hey,

The new holdem manager uses around 400,000kb on my computer and really slows it down a lot.

HM1 runs fine.

Basically wanting to only use omaha manager, but since it requires so much memory I was wondering if its possible to purchase the original omaha manager?

It's not possible to purchase the original OmahaManager anymore.


HM2 uses so much RAM, since apparantly you have free RAM available.
Example: if you have 8 GB RAM + a 5 million hand database, and you're not using 3 GB, HM2 will be able to fully utilize the 3 GB to cache your database.


In HM1 there are a lot of tables that deal with a specific hand played by a specific player. In HM2 we don't have these tables, instead, for player related hand data, we use a flat file approach. Each player has his own folder and each file represents a single day. Each line within the file is a tokenized version of a single hand with incredible amounts of detail. Your overall HM2 spaced used (DB + Files) is about 2/3 of HM1 and we store probably 2-3 times as much info plus it can be accessed many, many times faster and allows us to do some things that wouldn't be possible otherwise, many of which are yet to come.
