Who can get the smallest ram footprint? I got mine down to 14% of 2GB on vista Ultimate, Preferably can this footprint be done on vista machines, but xp ones can have a seperate table. Every time i get down that low i end the process init.exe or similar causing shutdown, avoid ending that lol. All you need is a screenshot of task manager showing the cpu usage, the ram usage etc.

(will post my score after i managed to stop crashing pc.)

I mean by shutting down processes inside vista.

Are you doing a percentage of your ram that is used, or amount of mb (or gb ;) ) used?

Amount in MB, considering that otherwise 4GB beats 2GB every time.

Well, in that case, I'm going to stick my vista HD in something with 32mb ram and have a 32mb footprint.. ;) :lol:

You didnt say anything about it having to actually run... :lol:

Well fine, it has to load up/run.

It should also not be about to restart because you killed a service that is required for running.

Here are my figures.

Total Ram = 1013MB

Available Ram = 855MB

Used Ram = 158MB

~ 15.6% of 1013MB
