This does not take away from the fact that memory leaks are still occurring. I think the leaks do not keep incrementing, for example if I open mediaplayer and when I close it it leaves some unnecessary process running taking up memory, when I go to open it again later in the day, I guess it would use that already open process as opposed to reopening a new instance of it.
(mediaplayer as an example.)


Although these unnecessary processes do not interfer when I'm using small apps, and when I'm using them a few at the same time, they do interfere when I'm trying to run a heavier app like Openoffice or when I'm using several small apps at once.
I understand what you are saying, I occasionally run apps like OpenOffice, GIMP, etc., and see no difference in performance when running them right after a reboot or not. Of course, a lot of Nokia's apps seem to have "daemon's" or whatever, but they probably come up right at boot anyway? (that's a guess).

But after I close all apps, my load-applet is always 1/4 bars.
