Shared memory and running multiple copies of the executable

Question

I have an application (winform exe) that I run several times. Does this mean that I have common assemblies or each instance has its own copy of assemblies? When I launch the application, it uses about 30 MB (in the task manager), and when I launch another copy of the application, it uses another 30 MB.

How can I determine how much memory it uses, and if I can reduce memory usage, if I run multiple instances?

Answer 1

It's complicated.

Start by reading my recent article on virtual memory.
