I can't wait for a CM rom to come for this rom. There's so much junk on this rom I have so much unnecessary stuff running in the background. So 3gig ram and 2.8 is constantly used up. WTF. Battery doesn't even last more than a day. Metadata doesn't work. Friggin annoying.

You'd prefer to have 1GB free ram and lags?
Err there shouldn't be 2.9GB constantly used up... mine uses about 1.3GB avg most of the time less, I'd look into why you're running so much all the time, cause that's not right.
More ram used = faster response for the apps in ram. So if more ram is used means the os is doing its job.

Mines using 1.4gb with 1gb free. .. That's what it says. ..

138 apps, 2gb RAM in use, still fast as hell (Nova Launcher). You Do know that RAM Management on Android is not comparable with RAM Management on windows, right?

I want to buy anew optimus but I want to know one thing.
How many MBs is the user available RAM?
And how many free MBs in RAM during average use and how many after task killing?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
With GB, 76MB Free without killing tasks and 200 MB free with killing tasks with ES Task Manager Widget. But I have not encountered any ram issues with GB, phone is always smooth and fast.
Thanks..and what's all available for use?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
76mB without killing tasks, 200mB with killing tasks.
Optimus has 512 MB ram, Android see about 450MB.
For user, with good ROM and tweaks, lasts about 150-200MB,usually not less then 100MB.

What are you guys doing to improve Ram usage/management?

Not touching it and accepting that this phone is gimped and that Samsung is bad at programming.
Sounds like what I'm gonna have to do...

Short of AOSP or a non touchwiz-based ROM, there is nothing we can do but tinker with minfree values. Android's RAM management is excellent, and the biggest problem we have is Samsung's bloated stock apps and modifications. There is a reason they are putting 2gb of memory on their phones while others are content with 1gb.
Running Tweaked 3 helps. When my phone was stock I was lucky to have 40 or 50 MB of ram free. With Tweaked I usually have 60 to 80. If it gets too low reboot your phone. After a reboot it usually has close to 100 MB free. It's just like a computer. The longer it's on the more ram it uses.
I've developed a habit of going straight to task manager and clear ram before using apps and stuff. Usually I start at 80-95ish mb.

When I was on the custom kernels I had nothing but problems with ram. I came to rely on Gemini task killer widget. Now that I'm on tweaked 3 with stock kernel, all of that has gone away and I rarely need to use it.
I'm not sure where the post is on xda but someone asked a similar question and I went on a rant on all the things I had tried in the past

This was the biggest "lesson learned" for me that's applicable to any phone I buy from now until I die.

Basically you have a choice. You either except the bloatware from Samsung and Verizon and not install additional apps.
OR
You root the phone and get rid of the bloatware.
********************************************************************************************************************************
However with the OTA updates the phone has got a lot snappier. I still stick with what I said above. From now on whenever I buy a phone I will check the run time memory and how much of it is being used out of the box. Samsung and Verizon should be ashamed of themselves.
Isn't there anyone installed ram expander or swapper apps to increase the size of physical ram?
The total ram is only 768 mb, so the remained after flashing the recent PAC rom is usually less than 200 mb.
This insufficient ram always requires "kill apps" before start new apps.
It seems that "ram expander" or "swapper2" can resolve this problem, but I can't be sure about these apps whether they are stable / effective.
Let android do its thing man.

Don't use crappy apps like that android intentionally fills ram. Its doing what it's supposed to.

Hi guys, I'm interested in this device but I'm planning using some widgets and some heavy RAM apps like FB and Skype, can you tell me if 1GB RAM is enough of are you getting some closes in the launcher or other apps?
Ty in advance

For what you want to run you need one of those 100GB phones.
Its so annoying that all of us with a 1GB phone can't run any of those popular apps without our phones exploding.
Keep coming those toughs guys!

It's enough, and if it isn't make a few changes and you'll be alright. The Moto G has incredibly quick onboard storage, like 100MB read 30MB write, there's very little slow downs.
I only have around 800mb of spare ram where I used to have over a gig of spare ram.
I haven't checked it in a while so maybe on if the system updates if using up more.
The only extra thing I have running from stock really is swift keyboard...
How much do you guys have?

Unused ram is ram wasted. Android optimizes the ram consumption as and when required so that there isn't any lag. Don't worry about it!
