Win10 system is inefficient? Does not take up much memory

  
After upgrading to Win10 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 Win7 systems, the memory footprint of Win8 systems 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, you see that the Win10 system occupies high memory because the hardware read and write pages are compressed for a long time, and Windows will compress them and store them in physical memory. It is then displayed centrally in the "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 compresses unused pages instead of Write to 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. But in Task Manager The specific phenomenon is that the System process shows that it takes up more memory."
So, don't worry when you see that the "System" process is taking 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.
