jackforbes 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2008 Random access memory, or RAM, is a type of memory that is randomly accessible as opposed to sequential memory, which can only be accessed sequentially. Tapes and videocassettes use sequential memory in the form of electromagnetic tape. Random access memory is used in computers and is temporary in nature.CleanMemory program was made for one purpose and ie toachieve maximum performance.

FirefoxRocks 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2008 There are a lot of these types of software out there. Some of them are actually freeware. I do not notice a huge performance increase while using something like this unless I have had lots of programs used in the current session. I do not use these anymore because it is not necessary on Linux and it isn't worth the memory that they take up on Windows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yordan 10 Report post Posted February 20, 2008 I am currently experiencing a problem with a Bridge game which progressively exhausts the available memory and then crashes. I guess it's a bug due to subroutines not freeing the memory. So such a tool could be useful, removing the unused memory and being able to continue playing withour rebooting my PC.

wutske 0 Report post Posted February 21, 2008 I don't believe in this kind of software, most of the time it only moves things from the RAM to the swap file ... making your system actualy slower . I prefer killing tasks that consume too much memory (or just continue working while I'm using 150% of the available RAM ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
