I'm gonna go wild and crazy and assume you work with IT in some way since you're on HN. How on earth does idle RAM consumption matter to you when a GB of RAM is cheaper than a beer? I'm not a Windows fan, I don't let Windows control any hardware other than a GPU on any of my systems but i do run it in a VM for gaming. I just don't see the problem, more RAM usage could even be better for performance. It's a useless metric.
