<para
>No meu sistema, o &kstars; utiliza uns 60 MB de memoria do sistema coa configuración por omisión. A maior parte deste uso débese ás bases de datos de obxectos cargadas. Pódese reducir enormemente a ocupación da memoria reducindo o límite de visibilidade das estrelas na xanela de configuración ou eliminando catálogos de obxectos (NGC, IC, cometas, asteroides, &etc;). Se o &kstars; non está a facer nada emprega moi pouca <acronym
>CPU</acronym
