CF limitations

[Mike Margerum]

Can someone please give me info on a few items?

thx,
Mike


What is the max amount of memory that can be allocated at 1 time in CF.
What I mean here in ot when tyhe GC collects in, but how much "active"
memory can be allocated at a time.

The project im building here will have somewhere close to 50 forms.
It's a fairly large app. Is there any code size limitations in CF1?
Will the loading time for the exe increase linearly as the exe size grows?

Hello Mike,

Garbage Collection will happen automatically when conventional memory
of 750KB have allocated by your objects declared in your application.

Here is an article describes more from Steven Pratschner's .Net CF
WebLog
http://dotnet.sys-con.com/read/46614.htm

Don't try to call GC.Collect() this will result in trouble. Compact
Framework will take care of the garbage collection.

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Arun.

Hi Mike,

From what I recall, there's also a limit of 64KB per method as well.
