Hi.
Why every application written in WinForms based on NetFramework, starts so
slow and get round 7 MB free memory? - even most basic form ?
Good Day.

That's normal. Norice that the CLR and some libraries must be loaded in
order to run the applications.

There is always a performance hit with initial application execution in any managed environment, but once the initial hit it taken for the JIT to produce the IL code; managed .NET applications could outperform unmanaged applications.
For the ability to use the language of my choice, C#, Perl, JScript, or the many other languages too access a common set of libraries supportable by any Windows operating system from Windows 98 or better; I think that's a good trade off.
