How much memory does Toad use during startup of the application?
1. Select the Toad user directory and look for a file named "Toad.ini".
NOTES:
* By default this file is located in the "C:\Program Files\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle\User Files" directory.
* As for TOAD for Oracle 9.7 and above, the installation directory is located in the "C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle\9.7\User Files" directory.
2. Edit Toad.ini with notepad, add the Debug entry and value. (Note to turn off, change to (debug = 0)):
[SETTINGS]
Debug = 1
FirstTimeDBAModuleCheckForDBAViewAccess=0
CustomToolbarFileUpgradeOccurred=1
ToolbarConfigurationCount=2
CurrentToolbarFile=TOOLBARS.INI
VisualStyle=1
3. Save the Toad.ini file and then launch Toad and login.
4. The FormMemUse will be displayed, click on Fetch.
5. Select Help | Show Toad debug output.
From here you should be able to troubleshoot on what Toad loads during the start up of the application.
