When I install a program on the Netduino 2+, Debug.GC(true) learn me that i have 93684 bytes RAM left.

When I install the same program on the Netduino 3 WIFI i have 127512 RAM bytes left.

The diff between 127512 - 93684 = 33828 bytes.

De N3 has 64kb more RAM, so 64 * 1024 = 65536 - 33828 = 31708 bytes gone with the wind?

Hi JoopC,

You have networking running on Netduino 3 Wi-Fi, a potentially larger managed stack, etc.

We're still tuning things and we expect to be able to free up even more RAM. Enabling some of the more advanced power/memory management scenarios in the future (like turning off networking at boot) could potentially free up more RAM still.

BTW, we'll be publishing firmware next week which you can manually flash to your Netduino 3 Wi-Fi that will turn off networking and free up more memory, for applications where that is interesting.

Chris
