Hi, I'm experiencing the same problem. On 99%, computer runs out of memory. Recuva is consuming much more memory than previous versions. The amount of memory used is in direct proportion of files found.
Tested on 2 computers:
At work, 3 GB RAM, 260 GB HDD, 1.190.000 files found. Recuva consumes 2 GB of RAM and on 99% crashes.
At home, 2 GB RAM, 220 GB HDD, 390.000 files found. Recuva consumes about 500 MB of RAM, is waiting a few seconds on 99% and finally shows all files.
With a few thousands of files found, memory usage is not increased so much.
Some measuring (at home computer):
Values stands for Working Set / Virtual memory.
Recuva 1.09.194 - 390.000 files
Before scan: 5 MB / 41 MB
At 99%: 390 MB (and it stalls for a few seconds)
After scan: 540 MB / 580 MB
Recuva 1.07.138 - 390.000 files (same disk)
Before scan: 5 MB / 37 MB
At 99%: 360 MB / 530 MB
After scan: 52 MB / 314 MB
Scanning is faster than 1.09.
