Yeah, software takes more ram, so when your ram is full your computer is slowed (because it probably doesn't need only 100% if your ram), therefore you buy more

Yeah, software takes more ram, so when your ram is full your computer is slowed (because it probably doesn't need only 100% if your ram), therefore you buy more ram. Now guess what? your ram is not at 100% anymore, your unused memory is wasted anyway, so why not use it?
Repeat the cycle.
- 12298765 8y agoNot exactly -- more like no matter how much RAM you have, it makes sense for your software to use it all rather than disk. It means that however much you have, your system should use as much of it as possible. Otherwise it's just sitting there doing nothing. Contrary to popular belief, the more RAM you're using, the faster your system will be (assuming it's using the RAM efficiently)
