[QUOTE="cristanregep, post: 1509159, member: 299954"] The problem is that if I start a browser and open up let's say about 10 tabs with FB and a site with a lot of Flash animations, then available goes down to 7 MB Ram and everything becomes very very slow. During this time Inactive memory stays at the same levels. Are there known issues about Inactive not being cleared when there is a lack of Free RAM? At some point this week I opened Finder, or connected my external monitor, and the screen froze for 1 min before resuming to normal. I've been using my MAC for 3 years and I've never seen this happen and I haven't installed anything special recently. [/QUOTE]
