program memory...how low will it go???

i've been soft resetting daily to maintain enough program memory to run apps but decided to see how much memory will continue to leak if i let it go. just after a soft reset i show 21mb free. after one day i showed 17mb free. i'm now on day two and only show 12mb free. i've limited my use the basics like pie, wmp, calendar+, and the phone and i obviously close all programs after each use out of necessity. the only today screen app i'm using is a basic weatherpanel config...MUCH less than i used to fly with on the 6700.

i always use a task manager (remember i said that i always close programs). i started with mb until htc-x button became available. it's pretty sad that we even have to worry about closing apps considering the specs of this device.

Odd... I don't have to soft reset so often. I have a very loaded Today screen and I was running 4 apps in the background with no issues today.

I am routinely around 9 MB and use Memmaid and SK Tools 'Reclaim RAM' utilities to free up as much RAM as possible.

The freeware version of SKTools installs an icon in your Program list "FreeUP RAM" that does help if you don't want to spend money on an app. Run it a few times in a row and you should get back some RAM.

I tend to soft reset mine at least once a day. I'd rather not waste memory with a memory recapture tool when it just takes a minute or so to do it the heavy way.

But I, too, am disappointed that this is even necessary. A friend of mine (turned out to be a major ROM-maker on these very forums for the 6700) explained that the "missing" memory is reserved for the phone portion (too bad that doesn't stop the system from refusing to answer the phone when it's overloaded). But there's still got to be a way for the system to manage itself better.

Man I can't wait for the custom ROMs to hit.
