How much free RAM do you have?

Speaking of ram, I just posted in another thread that Phandroid app takes up about 28mb of space and likes to force itself to stay open, even with PM notifications and syncing turned off.

I am rooted, using AMO with the "Optimum" setting. With the Phandroid app not hogging space, I have about 110mb on average, but in the low 80s when Phandroid is on. It seems to be one of the biggest ram hog of any app I have, as far as background running apps and I have 1.3gb of apps installed.

My vote was based on having Phandroid running. It seems to one of be the biggest ram offenders.

World Newspapers has it beat big time: 98mb of ram, but does not force to stay open.

If I end some apps I have about 100.

I didn't get rid of all bloatware because I like some of the social features.

I also left DLNA, FMradio, and kpilogger apks because I don't really know what they do. It seems like they run have some effect though when I look at what has affected battery life.

Speaking of DLNA, I froze mine with TB but it continues to run.
