It's good that they're putting some work into the memory subsystem. My experience on Windows 7 has been that it occasionally makes really bad memory management decisions; in particular, if left overnight with a backup client running (which will read the whole filesystem once through), I'll come back and find everything has seemingly had its process memory paged out, so each program and each tab will take some time to recover when I start using it again.
