[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1350763, member: 56379"] Dennis, iMemory Cleaner looks like it is great at freeing up ram...but what does it do in relation to the size of the "swap" and "page out" files? These are the main things I was explaining back in post #81: [url]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/switcher-hangout/262011-snow-leopard-vs-lion-6.html#post1350073[/url] ...which can cause a lot of the slow-downs (and "Beachballs") folks have trouble with...and I was mentioning that the more installed ram there is...the better when it comes to this problem. When I mentioned rebooting the computer...it was mainly to "reset" the size of the swap and page-out files to zero...not so much to free up ram. Thanks, - Nick [/QUOTE]
