What is TurboMem 1.1?

"Turbo Mem is a Mac optimization tool that defragments the system RAM to reclaim free of it that other apps are not using. It also works to accelerate the applications making use of a method called ‘turbo charge’. This method places the disk information in your RAM to provide faster access. To make the memory readily available to the applications requiring it, the program reclaims RAM from applications and the OS. This results in decreased slow-downs and ‘lag’ periods as well as improved performance. The most interesting thing about this tool is that it needs no manual intervention. Everything is automated. When it detects that there is no sufficient free RAM, it will defragment it to accelerate the the apps automatically.

You can use this program to turbo charge any application on your Mac. For instance, if you wish to launch a recent game of app that is memory hungry, you can have it run smoothly by turbo charging it with this tool to give it plenty of RAM to use. In addition to these useful functions, the application features total RAM scrub, setting alarm level for automatic defragmenting, cache adjusting, etc. Not only can the program work as a good optimizer but also an efficient developer tool. As it tracks the memory status in real time, you can use it to see whether your application suffers from memory leaks.

The application is a very useful tool for avoiding virtual memory as it can take RAM from background apps to let the active ones use them. An intelligent Mac program worth giving a try!"

"Turbo Mem will defragment your RAM and will reclaim the free RAM other applications doesn't use, as well as accelerate applications using a \turbo-charge\ method, which puts disk information in RAM for much faster access. TurboMem will reclaim RAM from MacOS and applications, so that when the application you are currently using needs memory, it is available. This will improve computer performance and frequent slow-downs or \lag\ periods."
