So a couple weeks ago I came back to Energy and found most of the little annoyances fixed and decided to give it a whirl. No matter what I do I constantly run near 90% RAM usage at idle and frequently find it creeping over the 90 mark. The odd thing is that CleanRAM never seems to free up more than 1mbeven at level 3. So now when I want to open an app like Bing or Youtube, I have to soft reset first. I even reflashed today and installed NOTHING. I setup the myphone account and that is it. 2 hours later (and having not opened a single other app) I turn my screen on to check the RAM usage and I'm sitting at 84%!!!! I can't be the only one running into this with Energy ROMs. And yes, I have tried changing the cache size to a smaller amount. I don't think this is so much a pagepool issue. It just feels like the infamous memory leak people used to talk about. (Even though I know now that the memory leak people spoke of was typically just the pagepool)

So, any suggestions on what I can do to keep this ROM running more efficiently?

EDIT: Should prolly have mentioned that I was on the 6.5 ROMs not the 6.5.x
do you use task29 when you flash? if not that should help

moreover, I'm running at about 10 or 15% less ram usage with weather animations on and lots of widgets using MaxSense! I've been running my phone hard: bing, google maps and nanogroove all open using taskfacade to switch between and i always sit under 85% ram usage
