Good thing and good riddance to that bug! My poor laptop has only 256Mb physical memory and I have to run Photoshop with XMPlay...
BobbyG is right. This memory usage column in the Task Manager reffers to physical memory only. If you want to have real memory consumption of a program shown, you need to enable the virutal memory size column.
I trust you guys.

I don't understand Windows, I am just using it.
(Judy versus hashtable) would probably lower the memory need and more than double the speed.
Just remembered that this was another way around -- halve the memory usage and probably make faster -- but you got the idea. And I hate to distub with two minor oddities..
Oddity 1:
1) Go to SID plugin config screen, in "Song filter" set "Skip songs shorter than" to some big number (eg. 900).
2) Go to playlist and drag songs that are shorter than the limit to it.
-> Songlenghts are broken.
Oddity 2:
1) Add the following (small and ugly) SID to playlist: VARIOUS/M-R/Mermaid/Early_Tunes/Teknuh.sid
2) Go to SID plugin config screen, in "Fadeout" set "Duration" to 0ms.
3) Go to playlist and play the SID.
-> Song lenght is 0:09.
4) Go to SID plugin config screen, in "Fadeout" set "Duration" to 5000ms.
5) Go to playlist and play the SID.
-> Song lenght is now 0:14.
That's all. I won't find any more bugs, I promise!
