title: Memory usage profiled in task manager and ANTS profiler
body: <p>I am optimizing my silverlight application (in/out of browser) -memory optimization </p>
  
  <p>I used several memory profilers, including ANTS, .Net memory profiler. The tools gave the result that the allocated memory was 38-40 MB. But, when I was using task manager the memory was at 300-400MB.</p>
  
  <p>So what's the difference between the two results? What do the results mean?</p>
  
  <p>I do know the same question was asked <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10136239/memory-usage-profiled-in-task-manager-and-memory-profiler-to">here</a>. I am just searching a better answer from experts.</p>
