An analysis of memory footprint of Windows RT System

As we all know, Windows 8 was launched with several versions, including a Windows RT system for the ARM platform. The ARM platform has some limitations compared to the PC platform, and here's a look at how much memory is occupied. I'm using ASUS TF600T's RT tablet, which is not surface RT, but both use similar hardware configurations and the system is also Windows RT, so the memory footprint can also be referenced.

First, let's take a look at the system's memory at boot time:

Can be seen, the system itself with 2G of memory, just boot up when the use of less than 500M memory, or relatively small amount of consumption. Let's open a partial application to test. One of the strangest things about Windows 8 and Windows RT is that the task Manager on top is visible on a variety of applications and can be set up as shown above.

The following opens the partial application in turn, first opens is the map application. Because the map application mainly contains a variety of pictures, so the system memory rise faster, about 100M.
