I have a system memory question to refresh my personal memory. I have a DA with 1GB (1024MB) ram installed running 10.4.11. After running my system all day (I shut down every night) and not quitting any apps (13 are open), just closing the unused documents, the System Memory portion of Activity Monitor shows:
Wired 103.24 MB Active 589.93 MB Inactive 314.41 MB Free 14.64 MB VM size 7.90GB Page ins/ outs 50890/3877 My questions/ comments for verification are: IIRC, the actual "free memory" is the combined inactive and free. Correct? So, in theory, I am not choking my system and work habits with "only" 1 GB of ram. (Yes, I remember choking my Plus with Multifinder and 1MB). I do not notice any lag switching programs except with very large clipboards and menumeters shows high cpu usage, so I guess that is processor dependent.
