[QUOTE="mbohn, post: 944551, member: 109496"] I downloaded this app and then wondered what the 4 types of memory are. So a quick Google and I found this: [url=http://sg80bab.blogspot.com/2007/03/is-my-mac-using-too-much-memory.html]Bits about Bytes: Is my Mac using too much memory???[/url] which explains them pretty well. Then I got to wondering what iFreeMem does to free up memory. It seems if it frees up inactive memory it could slow at least one thing: restarting an app that you recently used. Maybe this is what the 2nd poster was saying. I don't plan to let iFreeMem mess with my memory but it is a nice little toolbar icon. [/QUOTE]
