+1 on checking on GWES footprint

Ever since I discovered (with the guidance from many posts of experienced folks on here and XDA) how GWES could quickly jump in size but rarely shrink due to system usage, caching, apps not releasing graphics objects on termination, etc... that's usually the first thing I monitor these days.

I skimmed the winstart thread and TP2 GSM thread @ XDA. No one there has been including the size of GWES in their memory free comparisons using this new v2 stuff. I forget if teradog did in his initial winstart v1.x reviews, likely he did as he is great in detailing in his comparisons.
