[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1636857, member: 175845"] I'd tend to agree after doing some reading and investigating, especially if using OS X Mavericks 10.9.x or later, even though I used to use Free Memory and then Free Memory Pro with SL 10.6.8, but I really wondered if it really helped at all other than to make the user feel better with more memory "available". It seems that all most of them do is run variations of the [I][B]purge[/B][/I] command. Otherwise, the OS [I]should[/I] handle any installed memory properly. The key word being "[I][B]should[/B][/I]"… ;) [/QUOTE]
