I've got win xp at home, and I've noticed that if a scene uses up all
available physical memory and starts to fill up the pagefile, then win xp
will always "reallocate" the memory, so that pov cannot free it when the
render finishes...

it's best noticed on task manager (and other apps) that show that pov is
"only using 400Mb RAM" when infact it is nearer 1Gb...
And then once the render is finished, the 600Mb difference cannot be
recovered.

any solutions (anyone else actually seen this?)
