640 kB ought to be enough for anybody tbqh.

Just because your system is bloated doesn't mean that you need more than 8GB of RAM.

>>55057623
show us your process list. ordered by memoryusage

>>55057685
actually windows 8 and 10 will happily use over 8GB of RAM if you have it to spare, they just know how to cache things if you have less RAM so as not to cause any major issues, however you will get a smoother overall desktop experience with more RAM since your OS is having to cache far fewer things.


If you just want it to work, you can run with only a GB or two of RAM and it will still run basic web browsing and shit fine.

I can't. That's confidential.

or svchost.exe doing windows update

It's the other way around.
The more RAM you have, the more your system caches, because accessing from RAM is faster than accessing from the hard drive.
That is why you get a better desktop experience with more RAM, since it's faster.

If you are low on RAM, it will ditch the caches and require you to access data from the hard disks directly.

This.

iirc freeBSD is supposed to always use 90% or so of your RAM just for caching and/or memory mapping

if you have 16gb windows on idle wont use less than 1gb as it does on shit chinese wintablet/netbook.

your argument is invalid.

I have a fresh install of W10 and it's using around 11GB of my 32GB just idling.

If you have more RAM windows will use it.
