Publisher's description of FreeRAM XP Pro

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.

Editor's review of FreeRAM XP Pro

Free program frees your RAM Looking to free up some RAM on your running system? Then FreeRAM XP Pro is the program for you. Truly freeware, it gives you complete access to all its features at no cost. You can either have the program automatically optimize your system, or you can specify how much memory you'd like to free up. Advanced tray support, automatic memory monitoring and optimization, system-metric monitors, and real-time memory information are just a few of the features that make this program attractive and useful. You also can apply different sounds to different actions. It's doubtful you'll find a memory optimizer easier to use than FreeRAM XP, making it a smart pick for anyone who's ever been frustrated by a poky PC.

  FreeRAM XP Pro

  An average performer

  by: RailJockey on 23-Mar-2006 12:01:49 PM

  Pros: The program is ok, but if you have serious RAM issues, you need more memory, not a steroid for the mem you have. It's easy to use, but did not impress me all that much.

  Cons: It works, but if you have serious memory issues, get more memory. This will not save your life, it might save the moment.

  FreeRAM XP Pro

  Slowed my computer

  by: Irobotbender on 12-May-2006 05:59:33 PM

  Pros: ????Fairly simple to use??????

  Cons: Although FreeRam didn't seem to hurt or freeze up my computer, it did seem to slow several applications down a considerable amount. ZA loaded extremely slow, & after several other applications loaded first. After a few attempts to adjust the settings, I decided to uninstall FreeRam instead, which restored normal performance back to my computer. I run a 6 year old computer with XP from ME with a 256 ram, p4. I also keep as few proccesses running as possible, & run a cleaner utilities, keep the cache clean, & defrag often. Perhaps my computer runs cleaner than I thought therefore FreeRam can't help much.

  FreeRAM XP Pro

  Not for me!

  by: DeatHValleYNightS on 13-Apr-2006 12:19:03 PM

  Pros: I think it work...I'm not really sure. :(

  Cons: I'm running on 248 RAM (technically 256 but...) and currently have 60 + background processes. When FreeRAM XP Pro was freeing RAM, it completely slowed my system to the point that I could not do anything until it was finish. There is no official way to uninstall the program, and I'm hoping that deleting all the files will do the trick. And I'm not even sure if it helped my system in the first place. My verdict: try it and decide for yourself!
