You don’t understand a what “available ram” vs “free ram”. If your system use nearly 80% doing nothing then OS problematic. There’s no such a thing as wasted RAM when the RAM is available for program allocations. Free ram = Ram that’s can’t be use by any program = Wasted memory space.
@skurasch

@soraaoixxthebluesky what you are saying is fundamentally wrong. You want the system to utilize all of your Ram. Unused ram is worthless. The way you are implying it is the used ram is ram that can't be used on something else. This is objectively wrong, and modern computers do not function like MS DOS. Your computer will constantly determine priorities and adjust its ram allocation accordingly. This is a good thing because ram is faster than pages and means more commonly used applications can be opened faster. Even if you open an intensive video game with a bunch of browser tabs in the background, the OS will put those tabs to sleep, pausing their scripts and even clawing back ram from them if it feels the game needs more to function at its best. There are real problems with Windows, but those problems are not its ability to handle ram allocation. Windows is arguably the best as this currently.

RAM not used is wasted RAM - yes, RAM should be used for cache which accelerate load time of Apps and processes. However, the values tested here is not cached RAM, but RAM in active use at idle - i.e. how much the OS use running no other Applications. Windows 11 is really bloated. My Windows 11 Home at idle takes up 3.5 GB. Windows 11 LTSC which excludes all bloatware and minimum telemetry, takes only 1.4 GB. That' show bloated Windows is.

I have 64 GB of RAM. If it won't be used to further increase performance then it's wasted. Using 300 MB instead of 3 GB means nothing to me. Windows reallocates cache memory as soon as another app needs more free memory than the available RAM. You see, trying to save even a few more bytes is an ancient style of programming. A good OS makes good use of a greater proportion of unused resources to serve much faster. Otherwise unused resources are, as you would guess, utterly useless.

Windows takes much more RAM on my laptop but I have 4 times your RAM. Also, some Linux distros use much more RAM than your Windows, some equal to your Windows, and some distros use just a Fraction of the RAM your Linux uses. RAM usage is not bad as long as you still have enough RAM. It makes sense to predict the need of data from the main storage and preload these data into the RAM before the system needs these data. In addition, it makes sense to keep data in the RAM after a process is finished or terminated in favour of a new start of the program. It would be stupid to delete all temporary data from the browser after the user closes them when it's probably that the user starts the browser again. Modern OS are capable of clearing unnecessary RAM usage before it slows down the system. There's no performance in this behaviour but a lot of advantages. This is why Linux has support for RAM preload and some desktops like GNOME use predictive preloading by-default.

However, it's a sad fact that Stallman has not received the recognition he deserves for his pioneering work. Often, the term "Linux" is used generically to refer to the GNU/Linux operating system, ignoring the GNU part of the system. This can be seen as an injustice to Stallman and the GNU project, which have significantly contributed to creating a computing environment based on software freedom and sharing. Therefore, it's important to give proper credit to Stallman and the GNU project for their crucial role in the modern computing ecosystem. If we were to call "GNU/Linux" just "Linux," then we should apply the same naming principle to the Android operating system for phones since it uses the Linux kernel. However, it should be noted that Android is much more than just a kernel; it is a complete operating system with a diverse software ecosystem and a wide range of components that go beyond the Linux kernel. This analogy underscores the importance of recognizing the significant contributions and complexity of operating systems in their naming. However, it's a sad fact that Stallman has not received the recognition he deserves for his pioneering work. Often, the term "Linux" is used generically to refer to the GNU/Linux operating system, ignoring the GNU part of the system. This can be seen as an injustice to Stallman and the GNU project, which have significantly contributed to creating a computing environment based on software freedom and sharing. Therefore, it's important to give proper credit to Stallman and the GNU project for their crucial role in the modern computing ecosystem. If we were to call "GNU/Linux" just "Linux," then we should apply the same naming principle to the Android operating system for phones since it uses the Linux kernel. However, it should be noted that Android is much more than just a kernel; it is a complete operating system with a diverse software ecosystem and a wide range of components that go beyond the Linux kernel. This analogy underscores the importance of recognizing the significant contributions and complexity of operating systems in their naming. -But GNU does not sound good. -Is it fair to not take into account that Richard Stallman founded a philosophy, the GNU project, and Richard Stallman wrote an entire operating system based on freedom? Richard Stallman dedicated his life to creating GNU, and yet, credit is often not given where it's due.

Bruh, unused RAM is wasted RAM (Arch Wiki). Idk why people think it's the opposite. If you have a very old junk laptop or desktop go with Linux for smooth experience. But if you have decent spec'ed computer Windows will work buttery smoothly. It really depends on what type of hardware you're running. Both OS are for different needs.

I still don't understand why people keep comparing ram usage between Windows and Linux . My old laptop has 10 GB of ram I have used Windows and Linux on this same laptop to do the same things: browse the internet, building simple django apps, building simple react native apps I didn't notice any speed advantage of Linux over Windows despite the lower ram usage LinkedIn still bogged down the processor and slowed down the Firefox browser in both OS I think ultimately it all comes down to the processor The same processor means the same speed

We have no way of knowing if windows is caching data to speed up program startup and is able to relinquish the used ram when a program actually needs it etc. There are many reasons why simply looking at ram usage to rank a os on how optimized it is/bloated.
