I've a very strange "problem".
I work with a lot of programs (developing), and I've just got a brand
new 512MB RAM addition for my computer.
Before, I'd 512MB, and I was normally using 300 – 600 MB
Now, however, when I've 1GB RAM, I added SQL Server and CodeSmith, and
I get 919MB consumed.
WHY?
When I run PsList and count the entries, then I get only 708MB that
needs to be taken.
Where do those 200MB gone to?
(Btw, those tests where urn as admin)
