CleanMem keeps memory use in check on the system without the memory being pushed to the page file. This in turn keeps the system running smoother.
The people who will notice the biggest performance increase are ones who don't have a lot of memory installed. (More memory is always better!)Download
The reason is when your system starts getting low on memory Windows will start to move memory to the page file. The page file is ran off your hard drive. The hard drive is the bottle neck of performance on a system. So the slower the drive the slower the system goes as it tries to work with the page file. When you use CleanMem you help keep the system from using up all its memory. In turn Windows doesn't push anything to the page file, and we avoid the huge slow down from page file usage.
Why use CleanMem
To make sure the memory is being used in the best way it can and avoid memory leaks and such using up all the memory. Lots of people feel the memory is a resource and should be used as much as possible. however, eliminating , the left over trash is generally a good idea.
So how does CleanMem work?
CleanMem Works buy calling a Windows API. CleanMem doesn't change the working set of a processes. It simply asks Windows to do all the work. So Windows does the trimming, the moving and manages everything. This is why there is never any crashes of programs and any performance hit to the system. To put it short CleanMem doesn't work against the Windows memory manager, it works with it.
Changelog:
(All changes in this version are for both Free & Pro versions.)
Moved system up time from the bottom of the window to the top menu.
There a user can now decide how the program will pull the system up
time. Default is GetTickCount API (49 Days Max) the other is by the
Windows Performance Counters (No Max). The reason for the 2 options is
for users who have disabled their performance counters and do not wish
to turn them back on.
GetTickCount counts since system boot and includes suspends/hibernation
time as well, but has the limit of going up to 49 days.
The performance counter only counts as windows is running and doesn't
during suspends/hibernation, but doesn't have the 49 day limit.
Added new option to disable the bar fill graphic. This is for the users
who want the monitor to be just pure text. Such as when using blending
mode into the desktop.
Added new compact mode for the mini monitor. This will hide the text and
the make the bar 50% smaller. Making a very nice small monitor that
stays out of the way.
Add some pre made compact bar graphics to the setup.
Added new mini monitor start with windows options. You can now set the
mini monitor to run at system startup for the current user or all users.
