Tweaking_CleanMem.exe Command Line Switches

(1/3) > >>

armsys:
Does Tweaking_CleanMem.exe support any command line parameters?
What/how exactly does it improve the Windows system memory?
Thank you.

- CLEANMEM pushes parts of the "In Use" memory to the "Modified" & "Standby" parts of the memory (see Resource Monitor in e.g. Windows 7). The advantage is that the amount of used memory is reduced. Then Windows will write less data to the pagefile and keep more data in the memory itself. And data traffic between the memory and the harddisk is (comparatively) (very) slow.
- As time goes by programs are using more & more memory (memory leaks) and that's countered by CLEANMEM.
- There's also a stand alone version of CLEANMEM available that can be run apart from Windows Repair.

Hi Willy2,
Thanks for your thorough explanation.
BTW, does Tweaking_CleanMem.exe support command line switches?
Thanks again.

Willy2:
- I think it doesn't because it's a "stripped down" version.
- And I don't care to be honest, because I also have the stand alone version installed. That version allows the user to customize CLEANMEM. Then the program will start running when you start your system and it will run every 15 minutes (think: Task Scheduler). Keep in mind: memory usage of programs will grow over time and that needs to be curtailed continuously.
- In contrast to that, the CLEANMEM version that came with Windows Repair runs only once.

Thanks for your additional info.
Anyway I'll manually schedule Tweeaking_CleanMem.exe to run every 15 minutes.
Thanks for your help.
