What should I do if I upgrade to the latest version of Win10 10525 system and consume more memory? Don't worry

  
In the early morning of August 19, Microsoft pushed the win10 10525 preview version for members, providing a lot of new features for those who update users quickly. As described by Gabriel Aul, head of Microsoft's Windows Insider project, one of the updates is the upgraded color option for Windows 10.

However, many users report that after upgrading to Win10's latest preview version 10525, you may find that the "System" process in Task Manager takes up more memory. For example, the system usually consumes 650MB of memory, but it will reach 1.5GB at the peak. Is the Win10 system inefficient? Answer: This is not the case.

Microsoft has been optimizing the Windows operating system. Compared to the Win7 system, the memory footprint of the Win8 system has been greatly reduced. Given that this system will run on both PC and ARM tablets, this improvement is really needed. In the Win10 preview 10525 system, Microsoft changed the way Windows 10 systems use memory.

Basically, the reason why you see the high memory occupied by the Win10 system is that the hardware read and write pages will be compressed and stored in physical memory after a long period of time. It is then displayed centrally in the <quo;System” process in the Task Manager.

“ In Windows 10, we added a new concept to the memory manager: compressed storage, which is a collection of in-memory pages of compressed pages. When the memory manager feels that memory is tight, it will be compressed and unused. The page is written instead of being written to the physical disk. This reduces the memory usage of each process, allowing Windows 10 to run more applications within a reasonable memory range, helping Win10 to respond better. However, the specific phenomenon in the task manager is that the System process shows that it takes up more memory. ”

So, don't worry when you see that the "System" process takes up too much memory. Win10 is more efficient than any previous system. On the technical side, it is becoming more and more common to store compressed data in memory. After Win10 is adopted, it not only works faster, but also can accommodate more data.
