I pushed-and-held the TOOL button for more than 1 sec. and released, and my menu bar vanished (as it should). Free RAM down to 121650. I long-pressed TOOL again to toggle the menu bar back ON. Free RAM down to 105986. I pressed TOOL to toggle again and now RAM reports 89299. Repeated toggle again and now it's 74147. Again and now it's 59796. Then 45196. Then 30621, 18808, 5098, and then it's back to 141597 again. No lockup, so I guess that's normal?

The RAM was being consumed by the library and not being restored probably because Garbage Collection had not occurred. The MEM command forces Garbage Collection and then reports free RAM. Try this after toggling the menu on/off and you will likely see the reported RAM restored. All this is normal, you simply have visibility into what's happening via the new RAM display; until now the only way to see it is via MEM (or the File Manager) which do garbage collection before reporting.
