RAM is so cheap today -the cost of this program would easily buy a 2GB stick of RAM, so why bother, this program isn't going to save you 2GB of RAM anyday.
With your clever words there would be less work to those poor developers, who cross your way !
Whiterabbit-uk, it do depends on the OS and the MB and the type of RAM that you have, so that easy can´t you run off with the Oscar !
Agreed with the idea submission originator - in my tests - I have 1GB of ram on my Netbook. When you flush out the system, the computer has to reload everything again - making everything even slower. The best defense against having running programs fast is to reduce the amount of programs loaded into memory. But it only defrags it not provide a long term solution to the problem.
Rubbish the operating system, the type of RAM and it's size are not important. - As Jason Carver notes, turning off background programs that aren't necessarily required would go a long way to improving the running of a system.
It's usually one of two things that causes the slowdown of a sytem (well more if you consider such things as a poorly defragged HDD or a full HDD), a poorly managed system and and a poorly written program that has memory leaks (not saying this program has those)
I wrote about a fast test too. And I can only agree that this program don´t make any good work... actually the program do make the CPU work even harder (35-45% more). I guess that many don´t think in tech terms and therefore "buys" what sound good for a PC to work better.
The only developer there can make a difference is Microsoft. If they move all those unneeded twin files and their twin´s files then would there be less to move around with on the HDD. And less files there can be corrupted after a non professional registry cleaning.
