/* Not a technical question but about my phone's behavior */
My phone is Lenova A6000. After a few hours of use; on the left button click it shows the amount of memory available. A good 150 MB seems to be losing out. I could confirm this on reboot when this 150 MB is reclaimed then. Furthermore, even using ES Task Manager this lost memory does not seem to be getting reclaimed.
Any other good memory management/task management tools for Android KitKat?

don't worry about it, it is only the overhead of the NSA monitoring software

Have you installed any apps that you use or might run in the background? It might not be the OS. I've had the same problem before on both a Samsung Galaxy Nexus using JB and ICS as well as a LG Nexus 5 using KK. Phone gets sluggish, check memory, missing a lot. Reboot, and it is all back.
Both times it turned out to be an app that I had downloaded to try out. Needless to say they got uninstalled.
Go into settings, then under Device, pick Apps, and check the Running tab. If anything is eating up a lot there you can try killing it. After that, click the three dots in the upper right and select "Cached Processes". That is where your most likely to find your culprit.
Also, if you have any apps that notify you that you don't really need to see. Turn them off. It seems a common theme that developers for Android are not using the recommended design schedule to call home and check for updates or whatnot.
Edit: Oh, and yes there was a suspected memory leak in one of the KitKat versions. Only way to free up the memory was to reboot the phone. Update your phone when you can.

Outlook.com seems to be quite memory hungry.

being memory hungry != having memory leaks.

When is 100% not 100%?
I picked up a can of V8 this morning and on the front it says 100% Vegetable Juice then in smaller print, from concentrate - okay I can live with the water added, but then it says "with added ingredients". So, the 100% vegetable juice is not all vegetable juice.

unless the added ingredient are either other vegetable juices or is < .5% and they are rounding

It's a point of reference thing, which is used far too often in marketing.
"Of the juice in this container, 100% of it comes from vegetables."
As with many things marketing, it's legally, but not morally, acceptable.

Good point. Just b.s.ing as it seems wrong on some level.

My wife almost didn't buy a bottle of good wine, the other day, because it had passed its sell-by date.
Rules is rules, I suppose.
