As I said, I'm not familiar with the way that Windows shows memory
statistics, but I do know that both on Windows and Linux, people often
get confused because the OS aims only to keep a small amount of memory
free. I was assuming that memory used was total - free, rather than
reflecting that which could not be released without fatally harming a
running process.
