 Whereas my 64-bit Win10 system -- with just Forte Agent, Pandora email,
and Firefox (with 3 tabs) [and I think MySQL server running as a system
process] shows 5.5GB (out of 12GB) "in use" -- with 5.2GB in the "unused"
space holding cached data (ie; can be flushed if the memory is needed for
something else, but in the meantime ready to be mapped back in if some
process needs whatever DLL it holds).

 4 user applications counting "task manager". 70 background processes.
87 Windows processes.
