On all my systems I check the Resource Monitor > Memory tab from time to time. It is my impression that W10 does a lot more caching than the other Windows. Even after little use I have a cache with appr. 3GB of stuff. What is your experience.
I have 10 in a VM and it's not used all that often. It has 2 gB of RAM assigned.
That being said, it's not caching all that much, but the numbers are steadily increasing as Windows Updates are being installed
Started at a bit over 800 mB
Increased to 1100 mB fairly rapidly
Slowed down after this, but still increasing at about 4 mB/minute
It varies a lot, but the 4mB/minute seems to be the average at this point.
And just after typing this, it seems to have stopped at 1164 mB
EDIT: It seems to be decreasing now, and Windows Update has finished installing updates.
