The programs's main executable is Vid.exe and has been seen to consume an average CPU of less than one percent, and utilizes about 42.05 MB of memory. The setup package generally installs about 23 files and is usually about 70.02 MB (73,418,030 bytes). The program is built using the Nokia Qt cross-platforms native C++ framework.
