No! That's exactly the point...free memory does not equal everything else being faster!! That is not how things work on Android. Free memory = wasted memory!

Even if lots of apps have been opened, once memory runs low new apps will simply replace "older" ones (that is, those that have been asleep the longest).

At least, that's my understanding of it.
