Minimize to System Tray

Minimizes the program to the system tray at the lower right of your screen.

 

Hotkeys

MemOptimizer will perform a memory recovery whenever you press the specified key combination regardless of what application you are in (assuming MemOptimizer is currently running). To change the hotkey, which by default is CTRL-ALT-M, click in the text control. You may then press the key combination you wish to use. Note that for safety reasons, the key combination must include CTRL and ALT.

 

Show tray balloon after the optimization process is completed

When selected shows a popup balloon whenever an optimization is done including all the memory that was able to be reclaimed.

 

Clear Clipboard Before Optimizing Memory

When working with big documents or images it's possible that the clipboard might be using a large amount of memory. If you wish to clear the clipboard before optimizing memory check this option.

 

Beep when the optimization process is completed

To hear a beep (short information sound) when the memory optimization finishes up check this option.

 

Recover memory automatically every N minutes

When enabled, MemOptimizer will automatically kick in every N minutes (by default, N=30 but you may change it) and try to recover RAM up to the target level.
 

Monitor refresh time

The monitor refresh time adjusts the time it takes to refresh charts, memory, CPU usage and tray-icon updates that are regularly made by the program. A short update time gives you a very accurate view of memory and CPU usage in the last few seconds. A longer refresh time gives you a longer term overview. We advise a setting of 2 seconds.
