Does that really affect you in any way? (And I'm really asking, not trying to be snarky, I've got 64gb on my main dev machine so I really don't know...)

I can't imagine any scenario in my actual usage where I'll have 4mb (plus whatever is needed to actually do the work) but not 100mb (plus whatever is needed to actually do the work).

Also, on my machine (windows 10 stable branch) each PS window takes up about 20mb (at least the task manager is telling me that, I didn't dive any deeper)

My work machine is not nearly that beefy. :| I do often have 8-10 cmd windows open. According to task manager on my machine, each PS instance on start is 90-100MB. I didn't dig deeper to see if that RAM usage would shrink over time.
