Inactive memory

I would think compiling is a bit more accessible to Mac since it's built more like a linux/unix... as far as utilities being much more available, correct? That is to say it SHOULD operate similarly, not that packages would be compatible in any way, I don't think. But probably just as much of a pita.

Behaves perfectly fine.

Vladimir met some problem/bug, but by default it behaves just fine.
(I'll post my screenshots as soon as I manage to upload the video to youtube.)
