I meant to say "not" :-) sorry.
It is just a wee bit excessive.

Not to try and compare apples to oranges but isqlw.exe (Microsoft's Query Analyzer for the god awful beast that is MS
SQLServer) is in there as well with 4x the number of windows and its running with only 320 GDI objects. Since we have a
teamof 10 postgres servers (not currently replicated between each other) for an internal processing system, that I end
upquerying them one by one sometimes. With 10 windows, I have to remember to shut some stuff or suffer the missing menu
disorder(a funny term I coined when you run out of gdi objects and button labels, menus, controls, etc start
disapearing).However on my 64bit xp system (this one is a 32bit Win 2003 system in the pic), I have a limit of 300,000
gdiobjects and even running under 32bit wow mode, I never see anything like that, but for the 32bit challanged, it can
bea headache.

Do not debate this. Its windows. 1000 objects is far from excessive for this kind of app.
