I'm using revo uninstaller pro to uninstall around 130 programs in one batch. It does them one at a time, so I'd imagine no harm could happen. Though I felt my computer being very slow, so I checked task manager and Revo was eating up around 6GB of physical ram (out of my 8GB), and about 9GB commit. Is this expected? Is there anything I can do to prevent this?
Edit: After my computer was frozen for nearly half an hour, task manager updated showing Revo's commit to be almost 15GB.

Instead of spending that much time uninstalling 130 programs why not re-format and reload windows you will be done much sooner. Microsoft has a rollup for windows 7 that takes you from SP1 to April 2016 in 1 go. Then you will only have a handfull of updates left to install, and re-install your stuff. – cybernard – 2016-06-12T18:26:19.017
If you regularly try software to test it and then uninstall it, then you should probably do that in a VM (virtual machine) so you don't have deal with that much junk on your primary OS. You can take a snapshot and roll the VM back to pristine condition at will with much less effort. – cybernard – 2016-06-12T18:29:18.263
