Exactly what is the problem?

I don't know anything about this particular product, but in general,
*all* third-party software that attempts to optimize virtual memory in
any way is snake oil. At best it does nothing, but it's likely to make
things worse, and I strongly recommend against it.

Explain what your problem is, and it's likely that someone here can
help you.
