Hi all
I have a MBP with 8 gb ram. My system tend to run out of free memory, so I have installed FreeMemory to clean up once in a while. It normally frees 1 gb. ram or so.
However, quickly I am down at 20-50 mb free ram again.
So, I am wondering, if the mac-os simply want it this way - and by itself balances the size of the swap file and the physical ram.
In other words: Is a free-memory-program waste of ram?
