Product summary
Memory Magic is an application that watches how your computer uses memory and performs targeted optimizations to free up or rearrange RAM and swap space. It’s designed to help maintain responsive system performance without requiring manual intervention.
Usage history and visual reports
The app provides timeline graphs showing both virtual and physical memory consumption, making it easier to spot trends and sudden changes in usage over time.
How it improves on the built-in purge
While it can perform actions similar to the system’s purge utility, Memory Magic evaluates many additional signals before taking action — for example, currently running processes, recently closed programs, swap activity, and how memory is distributed across the system.
Resource impact and operational policy
Memory Magic is engineered to be unobtrusive: it uses very little CPU and consumes minimal additional RAM. It will avoid running memory optimizations when the CPU is under heavy load to prevent interfering with active tasks.
