I find that using Skyfire instead of Opera has solved this issue. It

would appear that Opera is a memory hawg.

I dont think Opera was using that much memory at ant time (around 3meg) no matter how high I set memory in the advanced Opera settings.
Yet it always was crying for memory. Strange it didn't go higher.
Manilla2.1 Process never went much higher than 1.4meg


My testing revealed that manual setting of pagepool above 20 is not optimal, at least not for this Build.
Better to leave rom manage it's own memory( set at zero).
I could see it adjusting(with zero setting), where as before with manual pagepool setting at 24, I didn't.

With a fully app-loaded rom at pagepool at 24, the "gwes.exe"(7meg more) and 5 other processes (another 2-3Meg) more memory than on fresh flash.

After hard reset, processes went to normal levels, so it was better.
But free mem stayed low (66Meg free)

After re-flash with zero pagepool setting (lets system manage mem), I had very good memory at 80M free
Speed was very good openin pic album so pagepool setting not affect it.
All processes now stayed low and after heavy use could see system managing and recovering mem quickly with taskmanagers.

So even though I did not find out why Opera max out of mem, I got normal memory & good management by not messing with pagepool.
