OculusDash.exe

Does anyone know why Oculus dash uses such a high amount of memory? I am seeing usage over 3gb on my system, that is more than Elite uses.

Forgotten how to turn it off, does anyone have a link to instructions?

Thanks

I don't think you can disable it anymore.
It's a core feature, funny considering the latest update made rather unstable...

As for the mem usage that is high.

Mine doesn't even break 800MB, even if I pull out as many windows as I have programs open.

does it not get suspended?

Haven't tried this myself yet, but:

Never been a fan of these pieces of bloatware (EDIT: A full bloody UE4 application? Really?!), that both Oculus and Valve have bolted onto their software - the "Launch SteamVR Home" option is resolutely ticked OFF, in this household. :7

Oculus home is a completely different process than the Dash, and is killed everytime you launch any other vr experience.
It is not eating frames or anything in Elite or whatever.
Dash is the "behind the curtain" menu system for the rift and is always running when the rift is active.
