Can you add a new column (at tasks tab) which show a memory usage by task in MB?

Why?
Memory usage is virtual, so you never know the actual memory used.

I can concur the request. Occasionally by error (and on a few selected projects regularly and intentionally) there are applications, which consume gigabytes of memory. With "keep preempted apps in memory" and Windows automatically enlarging page file upon memory shortage and BOINC having its memory limit defined in percentage... The commit charge limit is able to skyrocket and one can wonder, why does this machine crawl so slow?

At times I'd appreciate a peak memory usage column in the history. IIRC I've wished it as well...
