Configuring MemTurbo's settings                                  

The three MemTurbo sections below will help explain how you can configure application settings to improve system performance.

General:

bullet

Start MemTurbo automatically when Windows starts: When enabled, this will place MemTurbo in your Startup group so that it runs automatically each time you start Windows. You can check this box to apply this setting. By un-checking this box, MemTurbo will not automatically start upon boot-up.

bullet

Do a recovery when the CPU is idle, after Windows Startup: When this option is checked and MemTurbo is initially started, it will wait until the system is idle before doing an automatic memory recovery.

bullet

Automatically Recover RAM when low level is reached: When enabled, MemTurbo will monitor your available RAM. If it dips below the alarm setting selected, with the Auto Recover Level, MemTurbo will start automatically. It will try to recover RAM up to the Target Free RAM level.

bullet

Automatically Recover RAM every N minutes: When enabled, MemTurbo will automatically kick in every N minutes (by default, N=30) and try to try to recover RAM up to the Target Free RAM level.

 

bullet

Use full screen progress indicator: When this option is checked and you perform a RAM recovery from the main window, the progress indicators will be displayed as a full screen.
 

bullet

Don't auto-recover unless CPU usage is below N percent: This option prevents MemTurbo from kicking in automatically while you and your PC are busy.

HotKeys:

bullet

Use "Recover Now" Shortcut Key: When this option is checked, MemTurbo will perform a memory recovery whenever you press the specified key combinations regardless of what application you are in (assuming MemTurbo is currently running).  To change the hotkey, which by default is CTRL-ALT-M, enable the checkbox and click in the text control to the right.  You may then specify the key combination you wish to use. Note: For safety reasons, the key combination must include CTRL  and ALT.

Memory Graph Speed:

bullet

Slow, Medium, Fast, Very Fast: You can choose the speed at which you want the memory graph to be displayed by selecting one of the appropriate radio buttons.
