The last thing I saw in my RAM was a bunch of bits.

RAM is random access memory
Its used to store temporary information, its faster then a harddrive so its ideal for storing temporary things (for example when you copy and paste something, the clipboard is stored on your RAM)

Basically anything that needs to be stored on your computer temporarily is stored in RAM.
And yes, variables are stored in ram.

I'm talking about what in your script can take up ram, this is about the SA:MP server.

Thanks iLinx, at least someone can properly read.

He was referring to programming.

And yes variables & values. Variables memory is reclaimed when the function returns. And values reserve memory.

IDK why its such a big deal unless your seeing if you can fit a server on your PII system in the closet.
