The cause was the "smart preview"; it did not have a problem with another html page. When I crossed over to another application, I noticed severe system hesitation, which quickly worsened.</p> <p>Opening the Task Manager revealed that SM had a massive memory leak. At the time, memory used was 350MB and climbing *fast*.</p> <p>Coming to the forum, I discovered the posts involving the missing navbar folder. Downloading and installing the folder fixed the problem mostly. Unfortunately, SM 4.6 still spikes the memory for over 300MB when I load the stylesheet.</p> <p>I have a screenshot of the spike if you wish. Also, please note that as of this time/date (00:25, -0500, 10Nov2006) the full verion installer still does not contain the navbar folder. </p>
