  Thanks for all the work!
  
  ...But is this actually useful or actionable for the majority of users? Free 
space is a fairly understandable concept: if you run out, you need to delete 
things to make more room before you can add more stuff. It won't fix itself 
unless the user does something. But memory pressure requires a much greater 
technical understanding and isn't subject to the same conditions. When the 
system is using up 75% of the available memory, there isn't necessarily a 
problem at all. Apps will move to swap automatically. Even if there is a 
problem, it's only temporary, and it may fix itself if the user does nothing as 
the system shuffles things around.
  
  I worry that this notifier would just be yet another annoying pop-up that 
people dismiss because they don't understand it.
