Great!! Thanks for the feedback!
I usually let the RAM settle a little until the screen dims & then check again shutting off data (or waiting until it gets done syncing stuff) (21xxx series must give you more RAM OR your not waiting as long as I to even out b4 checking RAM)
If anyone reads back 10-20 pages you'll see a discussion re. high levels of data & supposed syncing even though I pull the SD card & install NOTHING on my RAM tests.
You'll find
zero page pool will ROCK like 32 pp @ first but still be able to handle 8 pp multitasking (down to 10 MB, which is similar on any pp & then Windows will start shutting stuff down...)
The question is
1. whether it'll bottom out as before with the startmenu = NO has plenty.
2. if it'll give it back when done. YES mostly. running a RAM cleaner will still give back a tad more but it's really pretty solid.
Also.... Windows seems to keep more RAM for the OS until it's needed in multi-tasking... tends to not give all back up to 91, but... keeps it for the OS until needed. See previous stress test results/posts. Never had old zero page pool issues.
