Seriously, in what world is it normal for an OS to use nearly 4GB? Is it the live video capture or...?

I already thought that this feature that lets you share streams even from some time ago of your gameplay must be a hard hit on memory, but I thought probably Sony reserved enough harddisk to save it there. Seems it is more used for memory. Maybe the sharing-feature is deactivated or restricted if the game uses the extra gig.

Well 77GB is reserved on the HDD (423GB available to users) but I'm not tech savy enough to know what it all means.Again, we should hopefully get answers at GDC.
