  2. Video random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_random-access_memory

    Video random-access memory (VRAM) is dedicated computer memory used to store the pixels and other graphics data as a framebuffer to be rendered on a computer monitor. [1] It often uses a different technology than other computer memory, in order to be read quickly for display on a screen.

  3. Virtual memory compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory_compression

    By reducing the I/O activity caused by paging requests, virtual memory compression can produce overall performance improvements. The degree of performance improvement depends on a variety of factors, including the availability of any compression co-processors, spare bandwidth on the CPU, speed of the I/O channel, speed of the physical memory, and the compressibility of the physical memory ...

  4. Torrent file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torrent_file

    A small torrent file is created to represent a file or folder to be shared. The torrent file acts as the key to initiating downloading of the actual content. Someone interested in receiving the shared file or folder first obtains the corresponding torrent file, either by directly downloading it or by using a magnet link. The user then opens ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FitGirl_Repacks

    FitGirl, the creator of the site, does not crack games; instead, she uses existing game installers or pirated game files like releases from the warez scene and repacks them to a significantly smaller download size. The repacked games, usually limited to Microsoft Windows, are distributed using file hosting services and BitTorrent.

  6. Framebuffer - Wikipedia

    Sun TGX Framebuffer. A framebuffer (frame buffer, or sometimes framestore) is a portion of random-access memory (RAM) [1] containing a bitmap that drives a video display. It is a memory buffer containing data representing all the pixels in a complete video frame. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_leak

    If so, we have nothing to do: finished Otherwise: Wait until the lift is idle Go to the required floor Release the memory we used to remember the floor number The memory leak would occur if the floor number requested is the same floor that the elevator is on; the condition for releasing the memory would be skipped.

  8. Static random-access memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_random-access_memory

    [10] SRAM offers a simple data access model and does not require a refresh circuit. Performance and reliability are good and power consumption is low when idle. Since SRAM requires more transistors per bit to implement, it is less dense and more expensive than DRAM and also has a higher power consumption during read or write access. The power ...

  9. Dynamic video memory technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_video_memory...

    The amount of video memory is dependent upon the amount of pre-allocated video memory plus DVMT allocation. DVMT, as its name implies, dynamically allocates system memory for use as video memory to ensure more available resources for 2D/3D graphics performance, e.g. for graphically demanding games.
