RAM Booster Expert for Windows

For the price of a few seconds of system slowdown, this utility frees some fragmented memory. RAM Booster Expert's neatly designed, multitabbed interface is logically organized. The primary page displays memory used, page file size, and a short running graph of their use. This app is very easy to use, and although the novice will appreciate its simple operation, more savvy users might want more customization options than are offered here.

RAM Booster Expert takes a few seconds to move everything in memory to the page file. It takes about the same time to move everything back in better order by process. Some users will experience little additional free memory after the process; some will find they have decent savings. Most times the freed memory is recaptured almost immediately by certain applications. On a second tab, the program offers select special optimizations. Very Fast, Fast, Medium, and Full optimizations are set by the program. The Custom Optimization seems misnamed, as it offers users no opportunity to define the customization. A schedule tab makes it easy to optimize memory at Windows start, after a user-selected given time has elapsed, or when free memory falls below a user-selected size.

Users can select from simple process and startup program lists to terminate items from memory or prevent them from running on Windows start. The 15-day demo period is more than enough time to find if RAM Booster Expert works well on your system configuration.
