![]() ![]() ![]() It was an issue then which I sent feedback on, but I was thinking I still might have developer leftovers in my install even though I have done a new install twice to the release. Likewise I have also been using Mac OS 10.12 since developer beta 1. It's worth noting that while local snapshots do consume physical disk space and High Sierra includes them in the System count, they are marked as ‘purgeable’ and you should never need to perform this manually, since macOS takes care of it automatically based on available disk space. Yellow memory pressure: Your computer might eventually need more RAM. Green memory pressure: Your computer is using all of its RAM efficiently. The Memory Pressure graph lets you know if your computer is using memory efficiently. Like there is some infinite while loop going through the same method. In the Activity Monitor app on your Mac, click Memory (or use the Touch Bar ). The problems I'm thinking of have to do with automatic updates not releasing memory when they are done. There is no reason iBooks should be still listed in Activity Monitor after it being closed, and it shouldn't be using 700 MB of RAM during a session where it was never opened. There is no reason for cacheDelete* daemons to be running 100% of the time especially when they hog up close to 2 GB of memory. There is no reason for softwareupdated to use 1.44 GB of RAM when there are no updates available. It also purges local backups if disk space starts to get too low. The way I think it should work is that if I close out of a program, clear it out of memory. In fact, macOS High Sierra manages this disk usage seamlessly without user intervention. Having an OS fight for control over 6 GB seems less than necessary when 10 GB of the 14 GB is leftovers from programs that were closed down a few hours ago and were never released from RAM. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to say hey this user has 32 GB let's use half of it, when the user might be counting on using 24 GB of it for Virtual Machines. I'm thinking it's a Sierra thing and this might end up being un-optimized memory management. 0.04 real 0.00 user 0. You can see the amount of system memory being used on your Mac. ![]()
