(version 2.0 could triple your RAM)
Use with caution.
Back in the day, I used this multiple times. It was all good fun at first, but after a few dozen times, something went wrong involving a black hole and the destruction of the universe. And what's worse, after I rebooted the universe, I still had issues. Harambe got killed and then humanity was shunted to the bad timeline. Still looking for a fix.
Just FYI, don't double your RAM too many times in a row without taking into account the mass-energy content of all that RAM.
You heard it here first folks, straight from the horses mouth: it's all this guys fault the world sucks.
Sorry, I just wanted more RAM.
Don't we all now?
You know who else wanted more RAM? Harambe. I hope you're fucking happy now
... Reed, is that you?

At least this looks like it actually tried to do something.
There was similar software for Windows, called SoftRAM. Turns out it didn't actually do anything. Their driver was just sample code from Microsoft, and the app reported fake RAM savings.
