WPF Memory Usage

Question

Application:

• WPF Application consisting of a textbox on top and a listbox below
• Users type a string in the TextBox to find employees, and search results

Answer 1

One thing that helped me a lot was to use a class wrapping the Stream class. This is explained in detail here and sure enough I saved a lot of memory by using this method. WPF really keeps the reference to the underlying byte[] and stream for each picture.
