Greetings. so I was having high dwm usage that spiked up to 1GB ram usage and didn't go down when I closed the application that caused it so I had to shut it down, of which I later knew from the forum'd Discord that it was harmful in the long run so I went to Win 10 Appearance and set it to Performance mode then everything looked potato. so I enabled 'Smooth edges of screen fonts' setting and things looked better again. now what annoys me is that there is a disabled setting I don't know that makes Discord loading animations not load, plus Discord text messages not having a distinguishable background and I want to turn those on as well as knowing the specific option(s) that cause very high dwm usage, thanks.

Also, I noticed that even with everything off except for that one setting, dwm still used 150MB while all I had open with about 40 Chrome tabs and Discord, even after closing both of them it still remained on that usage so I'm pretty convinced that Appearance settings aren't the issue then? I should also say that I only have 8GB of ram, some of them are dedicated to my iGPU and I can't be anything but picky about my ram usage.
