New view on memory usage...


The computer has been running for a few days now and as I was working I noticed that it became extreamly slow and the mouse pointer got looked up. When I checked Activity Monitor I saw that it was using over 66GB of virtual memory (see attached picture).

From my experience with Linux and Windows the virtual memory should be about twice the size of the actual memory but 33 times felt just to extreme. 

After a quick call to the support I was however thought that this was nothing unusual and having 30GB of virtual memory after boot is normal.

Hope this can help some other switchers to sleep tight while their computers are eating virtual memory to breakfast.
