This may be my "slow" area when it comes to computers, but I need some help.
I have 8 gigs of RAM for my G5 Powermac, and I try to run many patches in Logic such as many instruments using EW/QL and the like, but it keeps telling me that memory is getting low and may cause problems such as artifacts, etc. But when I use the activity monitor, Logic is only using 1.92 gigs of RAM and there are still 5.11 gigs free RAM on the whole system! What gives? How can I make sure that Logic has the full power of my loads of RAM? Thanks in advance! Uvee |

To "renice" an app will only give it more priority regarding to CPU cycles. On memory, we're stuck, the only thing I've seen approaching is only a way to free RAM by meddling with the Unix memory management (iFreemem if I remember the thing). but I'm rather sceptical about using it, as i don't like meddling with core OS jobs, and I've still to see if it does not screw something or if the free memory is actually used by the active apps…
