I meant it more like short term worries than long term memories. Running programs vs. saved files.

Everything that makes me who I am is in my saved files, that should all be safe through a shut down.

But the little running program fragments, all those little worries that never fully go away but don’t actually need to be taking resources to process, that’s all in that memory cache. Wipe that and the whole system is more efficient for a while, until they build up again.

My luck I'd restart and get a crash error in BIOS. "Boot device not found."
