Here's my temperatures
Another question about the battery should I keep my laptop plugged in or should I let the battery drain to 50% and then charge.? I usually keep it plugged in for about 4-5hrs then 1-2hrs without charging.
istat pro readings are here :
4G MBP 13 2010 and kernel task is only using around 350MB of RAM

Its probably just more aggressive caching. The OS will try to utilise the RAM in an optimal way. After all, free RAM = wasted RAM.
You sir, need more RAM, you have 6 GB of pageouts.

This.
One of the things kernel_task does is cache system processes to speed up your computer.
And there's no point in using apps that "free ram" in OSX or any nix system. It really doesn't do anything.

No he doesn't need more ram, he still has 2gigs free. Something else is causing the Mac to page out.

I also am getting about 1.2 of ram being used from the Kernel Task. See screenshot! My system keeps running out of memory and asking me to shut down applications. My computer is a 2.7 Macbook Pro i7 processor with 16 gigs. Is this normal?
