    ClearMem.exe - BF2 Performance Booster!

    Here is some information that I wanted to share with my BF2 brethern. I found a little secret that can boost your BF2 performance! It's a little program from Microsoft called ClearMem.exe. I just started using it everytime right before I launch BF2 and it has made a rather noticable difference in my performance levels. I keep a link to it on my quick-launch bar. Also I have found that if you run it 2-3 times before launching BF2 it gives you even more free memory. I went from having 775 Megs free to 860 Meg!

    Enjoy!

    Here is a brief description of CleamMem and two links to go grab this little gem!

    Download ClearMem from FixMyXP.com

    This tool clears out your current data sets in RAM. Clearmem (clearmem.exe)—Forces pages out of physical memory and reduces the size of running processes’ working sets to a minimum. When you run this tool, the system pauses because of excessive high-priority activity associated with trimming the working sets. To run this tool, your paging file must be at least as large as physical memory.

                Do I just run it and that's it or is there more to it?

                  I use RamIdle to do pretty much the same thing. Right before I load into BF2 I'll free up 512mb of ram and then quit the program.

                    ??????? I think your credibility is shattered seeing as you misspelled megahertz.
                    Yeah, it is made by Microsoft and I pretty sure it is safe.

                          This kinda thing isn't new. Memturbo was an application I used to use all the friggen time. I grabbed this one tho. I'll play with it a bit 'n letcha know how well it works.

                          Don't expect huge preformance increases if you've only got 512 ram, tho. It's so tight you will be chasing anyway.

                            I believe the files in the links are from the Windows 2000 Resource Kit Tools. I downloaded the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en and installed it. The Win2k file is version 5.0.2134.1 while the 2k3 version is 5.2.3790.0 and it is 240 bytes larger. The 2k3 version runs faster.

                              Very insightful find Jones! Thanks for the heads-up. I am going to try the newer version, then kick the tires and light the fires.
