What is the size of the applet downloaded and how much memory does it use?
The PASSPORT Web to Host® ActiveX CAB file that is downloaded from the web server to the client desktop is approximately 2.7MB in size. There is a lite version of the ActiveX CAB file that is approximately 1.4MB in size. The CAB file for the FTP Client is approximately 600KB in size. The only time these files are downloaded to the client desktop is the first time they are accessed and whenever a new version is placed on the web server. Once the PASSPORT Web to Host® software is downloaded to the desktop, approximately 6MB of disk space is used to store the downloaded components. When the PASSPORT Web to Host® terminal emulator is running, approximate 11MB of memory is used. This is in addition to the memory used by Internet Explorer. Each additional session uses less memory than the first session because the code section is shared by all PASSPORT Web to Host® sessions.
