Auto Recover Level and Target Free RAM Settings:

Auto Recover Level: Setting your Auto Recover and Target levels properly helps to ensure that some memory is available at all times.  The default setting for Auto Recover works for most users.  If you set this setting  too high, your computer may constantly try and recover RAM, even when it’s not supposed to.  Ideally, the Auto Recover should be set between 10-25% of the total system’s RAM. (Depending on how much RAM your system has.) The goal here is to recover most memory, but not all memory.  If you try and recover too much memory, you may take away resources from essential system applications. 

Target Free RAM: For Target levels, you won’t be able to recover 100% of the   RAM. This is up to the user on how much you want to recover, depending on what application you’re running.  For example, you may want to recover different amounts of RAM, depending on whether you’re running a PC game or if you’re preventing your computer from stalling.
