Version 2.2 of RapidSpell Desktop Java includes a method to reduce memory usage by approx. 50%, and although it slows suggestion speed by about 10 times it is still fast enough (on modern machines) for a smooth user experience.

It can be activated as follows:

rapidGUI = new RapidSpellGUI();

((RapidSpellChecker)rapidGUI.getCheckerEngine()).optimizeForMemory = true;

or

rapidAYT = new RapidSpellAsYouType();

rapidAYT.getRapidSpellChecker().optimizeForMemory = true;

or

rapidSpellChecker = new RapidSpellChecker();

rapidSpellChecker.optimizeForMemory = true;

depending on the spell checker being used.

(note: this has been added to the upcoming 2.2 release, please send any requests for preview versions to sales@keyoti.com)
