i have activity monitor open a lot more since i've upgraded to snow leopard. apparently i was supposed to buy more RAM with this upgrade.

Tell me if it's worth it. Thinking of upgrading to snow too!
for the most part it's worth it. lots of little awesome improvements... but it definitely uses more memory - especially safari 4. for some reason safari 4 seems like more of a hog on snow leopard than it did on regular leopard. weird.

some things i've noticed that are better: finder, 64bit support, contact syncing, calendar syncing, ability to capture and edit video with quicktime x.

...that's about all i can think of. i think i'm just gonna grab some more ram for my machines. i'm sure they'll figure out some better memory management soon, but ram is cheap...
Better management? What, you want a gig sitting around doing nothing? Good memory management is using as much memory as possible without swapping/paging.
yeah, except that it swaps all the time. but my pageouts are usually as high or higher than my pageins...

maybe i dont know what i'm talking about, but i'm pretty sure that means i'm reading from the disk a whole hell of a lot and that doubling my ram would help.
Ok, if you're swapping that is bad...Chrome, here you come!
