Default minimum fan speed and memory usage much too high.

Hello I recently updated to version 1.3.3 and since then my default minimum fan speed is set to 4000 !

Also (but this is a problem I had with the previous version) macs fan control's process is very often eating up to 200 000K of memory. I don't remember any other fan control app being such a gluton.

Is there a way to solve this tow issues.

I'm using mac fan control on bootcamp with win 7 64 on a mid-2011 mac mini : i7 2,7 GHz which use an AMD Radeon HD 6630M GPyU (which is why it's necessary to use a fan controller).

Thank you.

Ok, first problem solved.

Uninstalled an old fan control app previously installed on mac os and did a smc reset. My mistake.

Do you have an issue of eating lots of memory on Windows or Mac ? Immediately or after some period of time? (which period?)

Hello Steven ; this happens on windows (win 7 on my bootcamp parttition). It usually happens after some time. If I quit Macsfancontrol and relaunch it it will come back to a reasonable use of the memory until the problem happens again (usually after one hour or two).

Please post here the screenshots of the main window of Macs Fan Control app so I can see the settings you use.
