Watching SuperFetch
After you’ve used a Windows Vista system a while, you’ll see a low number
for the Free Physical Memory counter on Task Manager’s Performance page.
That’s because SuperFetch and standard Windows caching make use of all
available physical memory to cache disk data. For example, when you first
boot, if you immediately run Task Manager you should notice the Free
Memory value decreasing as Cached Memory number rises. Or, if you run a
memory-hungry program and then exit it (any of the freeware “RAM
optimizers†that allocate large amounts of memory and then release the
memory will work), or just copy a very large file, the Free number will
rise and the Physical Memory Usage graph will drop as the system reclaims
the deallocated memory. Over time, however, SuperFetch repopulates the
cache with the data that was forced out of memory, so the Cached number
will rise and the Free number will decline.
