Hi,

when activating HookmarkBadge on my Sonoma Intel system it takes a reasonable 9,6 MB of memory.  
After 9 hours (with a lot of sleeping periods in between) the process becomes the top most leader of all processes on my machine with a whopping 1.46 GB of memory in use.  
Repositioning being buggy as I pointed out in a previous post, each repositioning seems to be grabbing memory without ever releasing it. Try and watch in activity monitor!  
Thanks!
