    In interviews Joel once said that they never intended everybody to get every joke (or even for anybody to get every joke). Only that the "right people" would get them.

    As I understand it in this case it's not the RAM usage that's annoying, it's the disk thrashing that's annoying. Disk access will noticeably slow the system down negating the benefits of caching files that are not in use but *may* be used at some point. Caching files you have already used is almost zero cost (you had to load the file anyway).

    My problem is that Windows tends to feel slow when I don't expect it to so that it may feel quicker later when I expect it to feel slow.

    And the Dutch language is used by fewer people than Fahrenheit. Does that mean the Netherlands is backwards?
