Re: [Vista] How should I tweak Vista so it hogs less RAM?

Doesn't really matter. Gamers with less than 4GB of ram tend to shut it off so it's not trying to preload their large games, but the memory it uses to precache is released when needed, otherwise it just makes programs like your browser start faster by preloading it into memory. It's based on the programs you use the most.

I'll leave it on. I only use Firefox and Thunderbird. Doubt I will play any games on this thing.
