Try to find a shareware or free RAM defragmenter/optimiser. If it don't help, you just
uninstall it 
and you don't have to pay anything. If it does help and you are satisfied with it, you
pay the 
licence if it's a shareware.
You can search on ZDNet (downloads-zdnet.com.com) for that. Keyword: ram

As was pointed out before, POV-Ray *does* behave properly. Why it doesn't 
appear to be doing that on your computer is hard to tell, but clearly unique 
to your setup. Basically, the problem you are seeing is not one of POV-Ray, 
but of your computer, so changing POV-Ray won't help in any way.

How you could fix your computer is impossible to say, but a general 
suggestion might be to backup for data, format the harddisk and reinstall 
your operating system. With many Windows problems this tends to help :-)
