Wow thanks so much for that explanation shadow.

Very interesting the way it works. So when the OS stores part of the memory on flash to make room for other apps, maybe the Load Applet shows more memory being in use because it has in it's memory instructions to point the OS to the flash locations.

So in other words, even though certain programs are no longer left in memory, some memory is still taken up to point to the the flash location where the "library" in question might be for example.

Could this be what causes the load applet to show more memory in use even after closing all applications?
