Finally! Woot!

Hopefully Atlas (extension of ASP.NET based on AJAX) comes out shortly too!

Doubtful though, considering it's not even in beta yet.

It never was a resource hog, it doesn't even take up any memory on it's own. Programs using the .NET Framework seem to have high memory usage because data is not garbage collected unless memory is needed.
