Clear RAM

[Sparkz0629]

Hi Guys,

Not sure if this is the correct way to phrase this, but i need to flush my RAM.
I'm a programmer, and one of the apps that i run is extremely resource intensive, aas it processes alot of information.
The problem is, once I've run it, my pc runs extremely slow until i restart, which is a problem for me. I check on task manager, and it says i have total physical memory of 2078248, but available is only 228657.

edit: And the page file is at like 3.05 GB, is this a problem?

Is there a way i get get my pc back to normal wihtout restarting?

Thanks

What are you using? If you're using C/C++, when you malloc() memory, you should remember to free() it.

Example:

void someFunction(int strLength)
{
	char* someString;
	someString = (char*)malloc(sizeof(char)*strLength);
	
	//
	//	do some stuff
	//
	
	free(someString);
}

+1 to sn3rd. I'd think you're not clearing up, hence memory leaks.

Otherwise, maybe try Google for FreeRAM - A Program to free up RAM
