RN516 Memory Upgrade

If you download the logs zip file, one of the logs for the memory shows this. You can see how much is being used for caching and how much swap is used. If you are using a lot for caching but not swap then a memory upgrade likely won't make a significant difference. However if you are using your swap a lot then a memory upgrade may make some difference. We don't support memory upgrades, but you can do them on our models which use Intel CPUs e.g. the Ultra 6. If you do do one on be sure to run at least a few passes of the memory test boot menu option.

I found the following in the mem_info.log:
MemTotal: 1012744 kB
MemFree: 30020 kB
Buffers: 275088 kB
Cached: 250672 kB
SwapCached: 34456 kB

I only have a few megs physical memory left and don't use much of my swap (~42MB). I guess I don't really need an upgrade but a minor update might be worth it. Got 2x2GB sitting 'dead' in an old PC atm so wouldn't cost me a thing untill I sell that pc.. So memtest would be the first thing to do this evening after pluggin in those dims.
