That might be. Which program is a good presentation tool? Some that graphically shows me what all the RAM is used for. I use it to get an approximate picture of what is going on. The individual numbers are not important, but rather what is going on in general. I started to use gmemusage when my system started trashing, and I just didn't know what caused it. gmemusage shows me immediately which application is trying to grab a lot of RAM. I can also see if it is something I intended, or if it is something unexpected, or created by some crazy web page. I find that some applications use a lot of RAM, and maybe avoid them for certain common tasks.
