I've got 8GB installed on Win 7 64-bit, and I've often seen it go over
5GB usage. Usually that happens with buggy software running and eating
up memory.


Which buggy softwares from your side? The only ones that leak for me is
Mozilla's SeaMonkey v2.0.11 since I use it like crazy (multiple
extensions, crazy numbers of tabs at once, etc.) and Outlook 2007 at
work and home with both updated XP Pro. SP3 (home) and 64-bit W7 HP (work).
