[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1422516, member: 71075"] Absolutely - inactive is, for all intents and purposes, free. If for some reason you'd like to clean out the inactive RAM (for whatever reason), this can be done by purging it. However, it's rather pointless to do so. As for Safari, my experience has taught me that it leaks memory left, right and centre (even with the new up date). This problem isn't exclusive to Safari however - many applications leak memory. As such, it might help to restart applications once in a while. [/QUOTE]
