Your Mac's Specs
MBP 2.4/2GB/200HD/256 8600gt
i just bought 4GB of some nice ram for the MBP.

im having a bit of an issue with all the ram being sucked up, and then having page in/out's going on a lot.

when i start the system, im using about 800-900MB, thats all normal and all.

i give parallels 1gb and start it. I should be at around 2GB free now right?

WRONG.

Click for full size

whats going on here? shouldnt my "free" be much higher, than nothing?

if i exit parallels, i get its 1GB back, ok normal. still, my system is using 2GB now, having not much open in osx?

-When i shut parallels down completely, i gain 2GB back, even though its only told to take MAX 1GB?
