just wondering how much ram usage you guys are getting on xp. this is just b/c ive heard that vista is suppose to use 500mb of ram, i dont know if this is true, let me know if im wrong. but with my programs that are running right now which is almost none, im getting a little under 400mb of ram used.

Little over 200 here, this is currently with 4 active applications (Opera, Trillian, ZoneAlarm and Zoom Player <playing a 200 meg media file.) and several background apps running, i think approx 14 or so apps.

300-400MB here. it mostly uses closer to 300MB though. if i have no open programs(well the non-important ones), it gets down to about 100-200(closer to 200)

Well... how are people measuring this RAM "usage"? You guys also forget that if you've got a pagefile, then inactive RAM will be swapped to the disk.

well im just talking about what the performance tab in the task manager says. is there a more accurate way?

meh. the RAM that's showed on the Task Manager tab is nothing. a lot of programs can use up a LOT of virtual memory. Process Explorer shows Opera using at least 100MB memory ;).

edit: here's an ss of that i mean

Mangix- my opera virtual size in that program is 390mb... but in the normal task manager the virtual size it 90mb which seams more reasonable. something's lying to me here.
