Not sure if it's just me, but the new GUI is a memory hog when compared to the old version.
I installed this new one and it used over 550 MB of RAM, when the old GUI version (installed a few minutes later with same settings) used just over 250.
For that reason I wouldn't phase out the old GUI, not until the new one uses the low amount of RAM too.
The new GUI indeed uses quite a bit more memory than the old GUI. The normal Stereo Tool memory usage is reduced a bit recently, but in total it's still more than it used to be. I'm seeing 287 MB for the old GUI vs 462 for the new with the same settings. But version 9.92 used 455 MB with the old GUI. For the Winamp plugin I see 368 MB for 9.92 vs 510 now. The Winamp plugin should be using less so that's a bit strange - will try to figure out what's going on.
While I would love to get the memory usage down, I wouldn't really expect these numbers to be causing issues. What are you running into?
(Edit: Indeed, use version 10.02-028 that I just posted; earlier versions used more memory).
