I don't know what it is. I'm running Snow Leopard on a 2009 iMac with 8GB of RAM. I use the Free Memory app which tells me how much RAM I have free on my menu. After a few hours of use basically all RAM is used. I left my Mac on today when I went out for a few hours, came back and only 17MB of RAM was free. I only had a couple of Apps like Safari and uTorrent running, both of which in the activity monitor were only taking up between 100MB-200MB each. There was nothing else in the activity monitor that indicated anything using a lot of RAM, so what could it be? Using Free Memory I was able to free over 4GB, but what is using it in the first place? Is there anyway I can find out?
