RAM hog. Doesn't seem to release active memory back to inactive memory real well. With only Safari running with two tabs, my RAM usage is at 4.18GB used/3.82GB free.

Ditto on the ram, got a 4gig Swap here with just basic apps running. I reboot every 5 days. The animations slow things down for high ram users too, its not smooth like a baby's butt.

Yes it is hogging RAM i will admit - but its pretty cool

It uses more RAM, but it's not like I'm paging all the time either, so it doesn't make much difference. I'll probably upgrade my iMac to 12GB just on general principles.
