Hi Allan, I think you are referring to Disk Cleanup for removing unwanted material. The Defragmenter only rearranges parts of files into an order that puts the parts closer together, to reduce memory search time.

I'm not sure how Acrobat works, but when HDK converts a doc to Help, it does a conversion to RTF, followed by some database processing followed by a compile. This can use a lot of memory. Turning off TSRs certainly helps, but running my memory defragger helps more. The memory defragger cleans out all the memory that should have been let go but wasn't. It can make a huge difference. Other thoughts: Don't try to do the conversion over a LAN (Acrobat local, doc on LAN), because the server memory allocation can interfere. Make sure your local hard disk has at least 50% free space.
