I had read a few posts complaining of alarming RAM consumption in both 8.0 and 8.1 - seems maybe ill-behaved device drivers contributed. But with 8.1 on a Samsung 3-series, AMD Trinity board, I'm really surprised at how lean it runs. I have had video playing in one window [VLC 64 bit] in high def while running youtubes on the browser and multi windows open and the mem consumption will be around 2GB. seldom reaches even 3GB.
was this a big goal for Win 8?
