This will probably be a generic question - hopefully I can make it more
detailed. When I first start my machine on Vista, and I let it start up
completely after Superfetch has loaded and so on, the RAM usage is only
around 27-30%. By the end of the day even on a blank desktop, my RAM usage
is around 40%.
I'm assuming a lot of the reasons are when I start programs perhaps more
services are started and a lot of behind the scenes stuff happens which
causes the RAM to increase, and then maybe Superfetch gets some programs
that I use frequently ready, but is there an easy explanation on why the RAM
usage increases so much by the end of the day on what appears to be the same
blank desktop I started with at the beginning of the day? Thanks.
