What is the difference between "inactive" and "free" ram? I have 1.5 gb's in my imac g5 and when I first log in, there only appears to be about 400 free, and 800 inactive. After about an hour of usage, my "free" becomes around 10mb free.. is this right?
Got a tip for us?

No problem. Don't be shy to use the search function. But don't be shy to make a thread either.DJTJ said:
