It seems there's a nifty new free tool out to explain Where has your Windows memory gone?:
… for us Windows geeks, today is a red-letter day, … RAMMap is a memory analyzer, a lightweight tool (272KB) that gives you a very detailed look at exactly what is your system’s memory is up to right now. It presents its report in a tabbed dialog box whose opening page is a colorful, well-organized bar graph
thanks, for the info
nice article
Nice. I’m installing it right now. I run a lot of programs and every once in a while something seems to tie up my ram and I can’t track it with task manager. Be interesting to see if this can point out my problem.
