I installed Across Personal Edition 5.5 (in a virtual machine, to be on the safe side). I had 15.7 GB of disk space free on my hard drive before the installation:



Once the installation was complete, free disk space was down to 11.4 GB:



That was after I deleted the ZIP downloaded from the Across site, the folder expanded from that ZIP and after I emptied the Recycle Bin. That's 4.3 GB that vanished in thin air.

Next, I went to Control Panel > Program and Features and I had a look at what got installed today (Across was the only new software I had installed in quite many days):



If I add the disk space used by Across (which incorrectly reports itself as 5.00.0, although I definitely have the latest 5.5 installed) and by the various Microsoft SQL Server components, I only get 255 MB. That leaves more than 4 GB unaccounted for!

I dug into c:\\program files\\Microsoft SQL Server\\....\\DATA and I found three big Across databases, 512 MB each:



Still about 2.5 GB missing in action! Where did they go?

Four empty Across folders in Temp Dec 24, 2012

I did have a look there: there were four empty folders (across, setup_en, patch_en, setup) and a few very small log files. When I rebooted, free disk space did increase from 11.4 to 12.7 GB, so some leftovers were clearly cleaned. This sets the net impact of the Across PE install to exactly 3 GB.

software and databases that are installed together with Across that take up so much disk space

That still leaves 1.5 GB unaccounted for. See the video I just made about the installation process:

Transit uses the same SQL MSDE engine Dec 25, 2012

Transit uses the same SQL MSDE engine. And it's unstable and slow. How about Across' connection?

Why on earth do CAT tool developers think they have to add SQL MSDE .
