Bill Karagounis program manajer grup dari tim Performance Windows 8 mengatakan bahwa kedua sistem operasi telah di-reboot beberapa kali dan dibiarkan menganggur beberapa kali sebelum screenshoot diambil.
“The Windows Task Manager contains the main view of system memory
through its “In Use” statistic. The (…) graphics compare memory
consumption on Steven [Sinofsky]’s 3+ year old netbook that he was using
at the //build/ keynote recently, running Windows 7 at idle, and then
with the same machine running Windows 8. The specific hardware making up
a machine, memory use of drivers, and even uptime can cause
variability, so memory results will be different on different machines
(or even the same machine at different times). As you can see though,
Windows 8 is doing well relative to Windows 7.”
"For a bit of extra fun on a test machine, go to device manager and
disable your display adapter (unload the graphics driver). You’d never
run your machine this way but this does give you an even closer
approximation of the memory use of Windows itself. With a disabled
graphics driver, the machine above gets under 200MB after idling for a
while.”
