Is 1 Gb memory use at idle OK? (slow computer)
My computer has gotten horribly slow and I'm going through the 39-step optimization checklist on this site.
In the meantime I would like to know if my memory usage is too high: 1 Gb with no programs running and the computer just sitting there; 1.59 Gb with these running:
Firefox, Opera, Spotify, Xlporer2 (3rd-party file manager/explorer)
I'm attaching lists of the processes from these two cases.
Thanks
