Free the Ram ??

[Adam Taylor]

great suggestion Jon.

I ran macjanitor rather than terminal, but it does the same thing…and it has freed the ram without a reboot.

thanks again.

Adam,
By any chance have you increased the FC’s “Still Cache’?

Mac OX 10.5.2-FC 6.02-QT 7.4.1
G5 2x2Gh 4GbRAM-BlackMagic Extreme
PMBP 17″Core2Duo 4GbRAM-AJA ioHD
JVC DTV-17″
SONY EX-1 . SONY PD170
..and always a big mess on top of the table.
