    Hey guys,

    So I was reading about this program a few days ago on the forums and I cannot find the thread, or post for the life of me.

    What I do remember is that its a program that caches other data/programs on the available RAM so everything runs smoother. If the OS needs the ram to do something, the RAM is given back and the stuff is un-cached. Its a windows program. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
