@siegel 72 MB for LaunchBar RPRVT here (uptime 4 days).
@milend One of the reasons I don't like to reboot is that, for the last several versions, Finder no longer remembers my open windows.
@milend If only we had a modern OS that could manage memory automatically among applications.
@milend I probably reboot at least once a week. More often if the system is warning me about low RAM.

@danielpunkass @marczak @rustyshelf There's a specific rule (3.1) not to mention other platforms. And it's not under the Trademark section.
@siegel @milend I didn't even have room in that tweet for Xcode, Safari, and mds. :-) BBEdit still uses barely any RAM, though.
@milend @siegel VMs. Aperture. Apps are just hungry these days. iTunes: 800 MB. CrashPlan: 1 GB. Mail: 800 MB. Tower: 300 MB.
@siegel I thought the logic board was fine in 2012 because I thought 16 GB would be OK for 2–3 years. Wouldn't want to lock that in today.
Surprised that you still can't BTO a MacBook Pro with more RAM than my 2-year-old one has. At least none of the retina ones are still 4 GB.
