		<title>iPhone Dev Tip: How to find out Available/Free Memory</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The iPhone has limited memory,and as developer its our responsibility to manage memory optimally. On one hand caching improved performance while on other hand it uses 'expensive' memory, and we must optimally balance between both sides.

Once you received memory warning you can release unwanted objects to free up the memory, but knowing how much memory is available OR free on iPhone will help you make calculated decisions before low memory warning is even triggered. OR simply you can ask user to restart the iPhone and then launch the application.This Tip will help you calculate Available Memory for your application.
