Default Free RAM is only 13MB :o

I am running kavana's WM6.1 English only. It has max free RAM is locked out at 13-14MB (even with Celetask 2.0c's g0dly free memory tweak).

What causes the ram go so low?
When I am running on wife with IE and WMP running in background, My phone gets chocked and I experience severe lockups. On previous T-Mo official rom, it was 22MB

(I was able to get 28MB free on my HTC Torndo w/ WM6.5 previously)

Also WM is notorious for leaks on PPC we use CleanRAM but not available on SP.

Best bet is to close processes and use Celetask free RAM.

What about having a pagepool of 8mb? and how can I define it without cooking the rom / editing nbf sorry I am noob at rom cooking stuff.

I just want to run Opera Mobile 10 flawlessly with HTC Audio Manager Running in background. Will it work awesome with 4MB?

I am downloading the 4MB pagepool one you have posted the permalink here

You can change the PP with instructions here no need to cook just patch the .nbh .

Try the ROM provided as runs very smooth also it's the light version so gives more space another way to free tiny bit more is disable MSVC

The PP balances speed v's RAM but on 4.5 with Ricky Remade you hardly notice it, on 6.5's it's a very different story as they using far more processes to start with and lowering the PP really slows it down.

Opera Mobile i'm still running 8.6 "think that's the one" put it this way my gf uses the Excalibur and never has any issue using net etc even though she never shuts down anything lol

downloaded, flashed and running flawlessly (just installed my Celetask 2.0c)
Now Installing Opera Mobile 10. Will report
Also installation to storage card is a bit slower than the default kavana's rom, I sniff it.

This should help, seems to run on all Roms and included with some.

Off topic, but I have to ask. Bumped from being a moderator ? I just noticed that under your name it says moderator committee.
What's up with that ?

I actually had that app you were looking for. To late reading the thread, you found it yourself.
