I forget to check what I had before.. Can someone who hasn't loaded the latest version htc-msm-android@20100310_213242
check out the amount of free memory.
To be consistent with what I'm comparing to,
Open -- Advanced Task Killer Free
Click on KILL selected apps (with all app checked including Advanced Task Killer Free)
Open is again (the only item there should be Advanced Task Killer Free)
What does it show as the amount of Available Memory (above the "KILL selected apps" button)
Mine shows 90M

Another good way to get the total memory is to open the terminal app -- pTerminal works for this, thankfully (it doesn't work for a lot of things) -- and type 'free' (without the quotes). It tells you total memory, used, shared, free, swap, etc.
Pretty sure nothing that's been committed lately is going to have an effect on those numbers, though.
Edit: Of course, it'll also say that almost all the memory is always in use. I think that's just a function of linux and Android memory management. Nothing to worry about. Task Killer is more useful for seeing how much is free in Android. Though there's some thought that actually killing tasks is
not the best idea.
