Im running the gpe RUU on my m8 and on average I was using about 75% of my ram just to function on sense. Now that I've switched to the gpe I'm using considerably less, a minor 43%.

It's worth noting that high memory usage on Android isn't necessarily a bad thing. Android caches a lot of apps in RAM so they start faster when you go to launch them. If an app needs more memory, Android will make room by flushing older apps / processes out.

This is pretty much the only reason I am considering the GPE over the Sense version. The RAM usage looks to be a lot less on the GPE, but I would be missing out on the features from Sense.

What's the point of having 2GB of RAM if you don't use it?

Yeah, that's true, plus I'd be missing out on all the features of Sense.
