If you talking about CPU...eJukebox should not use more than 5% while you are idle and not mousing over the interface. A fair amount of CPU is used when you are active and mousing over graphically changing elements, opening the album or song lists or looking up album images in eJukebox. ID3 tag writing in the editor also uses allot of CPU when album images are envolved in the writing. Memory usage should be below 7MB most of the time. The only other resource eJukebox uses is the hard-drive for data storage and caching.

If you are running low on resources you can get some back if you change winamp to use the classic skin and turn off its visualizations.
