I'm confused about Kronos Memory, aka RAM

It has 2gb?

But only 148mb free?

how does this work, what is loaded into the ram?

OS itself and "ROM" samples are loaded in RAM upon power on (that's about a GB of RAM). SGX-1 pianos take a decent amount of RAM, as well as any other EXs that are loaded upon power on.

Search for my previous post "RAM size overview factory and other sample libraries". You'll find details there

My RIM PlayBook specs 1GB RAM, but after a fresh reboot I'm lucky to see anything more than 600MB free. OS needs space too.

However, I have 1GB sample RAM installed in my Motif XS, and the full amount is always available to load (SLOWLY). The OS is loaded elsewhere, in a rock-solid manner that has never crashed, rebooted, not the slightest flinch. It just works, every time, all the time
