My 1p v8 uses 120MB when opened and unlocked on windows 10, divided over 4 processes. I have 32GB of RAM, that 120MB will fit somewhere I'm sure of it.

Also I don't think the Windows app is an Electron app? I'm not sure how to see it but it feels very native to me. Do you think they have a native Windows app but an Electron mac app?

Yeah this is simply FUD—I'm seeing 118MB myself and that's with a decade worth of passwords and other info in there.

No, all the desktop apps are the same Electron app.

Well in that case they sure as heck did wonders in optimising the app for low RAM usage. When I compare this to the dreadful Adobe CC app (also an Electron app) this one uses way less. Also feels rather speedy in use and doesn't crash when I shut down my PC - like the Adobe CC app.
