Trying to figure out what proggy's have mem leaks and are chewing my my RAM.. at reboot I'm ~48% mem, but now after some running, yet quitting everything, I'm sitting at 60%.

Task manager->Processes shows...
device.exe 4.61M
gwes.exe 4.40M
filesys,exe 3.61M
cprog.exe 1.36M
services.exe 812K

after soft-reset I see
device.exe 4.20M
filesys,exe 2.92M
gwes.exe 2.73M
shell32.exe 1.44M
cprog.exe 900k
services.exe 660K

any way to get these to be better behaved?
this is running 19701 Black and Clean pdaviet.

you sure you're closing the apps or just minimising them? do you have an app like x-button installed that REALLY closes the apps???? Check your memory in settings and see whats running...:)

Yep, I have X-button. And just to be sure, if I go to Task Manager->Applications, nothing is shown as running.

I use Oxios Hibernate alot to keep my memory high. Before, I had to perform a soft reset at least every other day, if not every morning. Now I'll only do one once a week or two just to freshen it up. Maybe it will help you free up some memory.

It comes with Oxios CloseApps, too, but I only use Hibernate. They both seem to do the same thing.

Thanks. I've actually tried those and they don't seem to get this memory back. This AM all I did was ActiveSync and run iContact (0.6).. and I lost 5% of memory that I could not recover..
