CNET Editors' review
Even if you're not a RAM whiz, you can still easily free up RAM on your running system? By selecting AutoFree mode and then 'go,' FreeRAM XP Pro can automatically optimize your system, balancing levels between your memory cache and the computer's speed. Those with a little more RAM know-how can specify the amount they'd like freed in the program's extensive settings menu. Remember that attempting to free up more RAM than your system can handle will subsequently slow it down. Reporting options, a slew of memory monitoring tools, and the ability to place a preset of your memory settings to the desktop are reasons to try FreeRAM XP Pro.
Publisher's Description
From YourWare Solutions:
FreeRAM XP Pro includes automatic memory monitoring and optimization; advanced tray support; fast, threaded freeing with a stop option; multiple system-metric monitors; a simple and attractive GUI; memory reporting and diagnostic logging; and real-time memory information. FreeRAM XP Pro's AutoFree feature intelligently scales how much RAM is freed with your current system status, thus optimizing RAM without slowing down your computer. Additionally, FreeRAM XP Pro's unique Global Memory Compression technology frees memory instantly in a way that is completely unlike other memory managers. FreeRAM XP Pro has been designed to be easy to use yet highly customizable by computer novices and experts alike.
Version 1.52 enables Global Memory Compression by default for all memory freeing operations (this can be disabled through the Settings); adjusts AutoFree to be slightly more conservative when freeing RAM; and fixes a minor installation bug.

"Lousy Program"
Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.52
Pros
Always started reliably when Windows started
Cons
Caused system crashes, stalls, and freezing.
Summary
I have used optimizers before, but this one is the worst! This software has a lot of bugs. Resource hog in it's own right. System was crashing, freezing, stalling, 3 or more times in an hour. Memory had to be freed every 15-20 minutes. Uninstalled and no more freezing, stalling or crashes. This isn't software,it's crapware.

"Obvious results with 1 GB RAM or less"
Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.52
Pros
Just works. I have an old OQO model 2 where the ram is soldered the the mainboard, and it as an SSD so I keep no page file so it obviously never ran well and the CPU was over taxed and it made the fan sound like a lifeguard whistle. As soon as I installed this product, everything worked better. The CPU temp went down, less fan noise and programs popped right open.
Cons
None that I can tell.
Summary
If you have 1 GB or less RAM, this WILL significantly improve performance. Aside from my other noted application where a swap file is generally not recommended (on SSD), I also have it installed on a computer with 2 GB and a page file enabled, and on another with 1 GB and a page file. Both of these machines seem to see less hard drive activity so I suspect less paging. The sees SIGNIFICANT performance increase.

Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.52

"One of the best memory optimizer programs"
Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.52
Pros
Everything, including additional tweaks built in. Small installation size of a program and occupancy on hard disk.
Cons
developement of program has stoped, no new version for a long time. YourWareSolution shuould add Memory Scrub or Memory Defrag option like in MemTurbo.
Summary
With this memory management program that has everything needed to keep your RAM optimized is probably the best, doesn't matter, freeware, trial etc... it's out of class, at the very TOP. Including program's performance what's maybe highest between memory optimizer tools.
