Do you know a workaround for this, to waste, eg 1% memory while waiting,
instead a 8-10%?
I've never measured the memory use of a simple stay-open applet with
an idle handler but I'd be surprised if it's much.
An alternative would be folder actions -- create an empty file in the
watched folder -- but I have no idea whether folder actions use
memory.
