Hi
Thanks for the reply
I have 16GB of RAM and use Linux Mint. When I open the system without opening any applications, my RAM consumption is 2.5GB. I changed the Fragment Cache Size to 8GB, and when I open GIMP without any images, its consumption remained at 4.9GB, and the total system RAM consumption shown in the Mission Center or System Monitor was 7.3GB. I opened an image manipulation file, and GIMP's consumption rose to 6.7GB. I opened another image manipulation file without closing the previous one, and this time it was 9.4GB, and the system total was 11.5GB.
I think it's possible to work this way.
On Windows, when I had high memory consumption, I used a Microsoft application called PCManager, and it provided a RAM booster. I don't know if something similar exists on Linux.
