Hi, all
In the past couple of months i'm having a serious ram problem that i haven't had before.
After a long session (I'd say 8 hours but it's starting to get shorter and shorter, sometimes after 6 hours i have this problem) of gaming, using internet and similar, my ram usage gets pretty high without having processes open. I have 8 GB of ram and if i start the session with a minimum ram usage of about 1,7 GB (about 20%) i finish the "session" with an usage of about 4,7 GB (about 60%) (and i repeat) without having processes open.
Solutions that i tried were a malware scan, that didn't find anything; reducing the services run at the start, that didn't resolve anything; i even tried some sort of memory cleaner both the windows one (rundll32 with advapi32.dll, that should be a ram flush) and external ones.
Searching through the web someone was saying that it's ok if the ram usage is so high because it means that there's no ram free and it's good because windows can use that used ram to start processes faster and replace the processes ram usage with the one in idle. The fact is that the ram is not in idle but it's the physical usage.
Before i said that i hadn't processes open when i had a 60% usage of the ram, i meant that summing up the working set of the singular processes they don't reach the 60% but just a 30%.
Someone was saying that the ram usage is in the cache, but even that the ram usage in the cache was 300 MB (using the resource monitor).
The only solution that i found is a restart. Restarting resets the ram and all that extra 3GB used disappear.
The fact is that before these two months i had the computer turned on for days, and i was able to suspend after a day (now i think, since there's this ram problem, it can't suspend because the suspension use the ram) now i can't and i have to restart.
Any solutions? Thanks in advance!
