Version 3.5.2 · Open source · Windows
Mem Reduct displays memory usage and uses Windows features to empty certain caches and worksets. Management tasks require rights of administrator.
A lower number for used memory is not automatically a faster computer. Released data may need to be rereaded when re-used.

Often used memory is not automatically a problem: Windows also uses available space as cache. The release of this may temporarily result in a lower number, while programs will have to re-read data. Therefore, assess the behaviour of apps instead of just the percentage.
Use manual cleaning to examine a concrete problem and change automatic limits carefully. If a program continues to use more memory, research into that program is often more useful than repeatedly emptying the cache.

Our verdict
Mem Reduct is mainly a tool to investigate a specific memory problem. Don't use it as a fixed speed course. Compare behavior of the app before and after surgery; only the free amount of RAM says little. In the case of structural deficit, fewer background programs or more memory are usually more relevant.
