This tool clears out your current data sets in RAM. Clearmem (clearmem.exe) ? forces pages out of physical memory and reduces the size of running processes? working sets to a minimum. When you run this tool, the system pauses because of excessive high-priority activity associated with trimming the working sets. To run this tool, your paging file must be at least as large as physical memory.
Get it @ XP-Erience.org

Yeah sure, it clears out memory. But where does it clear out to? Virtual memory? Is that necessarily a good thing? Not from my point of view. I like my page file to be as empty as possible. In fact I use the 'Disable paging exec' to keep things in memory as they tend to run somewhat faster than in V mem. Anyone who plays games will agree - VMEM sucks! Just buy more RAM! It's cheap enough. |
