Hi,
1. Are virtual memory and pagefile the same? If not what is the
difference? As I understand it all programs/processes in a 32-bit OS get
allotted a 32 bit (4 GB ) Virtual memory space. Then how does pagefile fit
in here, especially if it is only 512MB in size? Any of you hardware wizards
help me out with this??
2. If I have a win2k server as a terminal server with 4GB of RAM, how do I
go about setting the pagefile size?
3. Long time ago I read that it is best to set the max and min pagefile
size the same, so as to avoid wasting CPU cycles at busy times and also to
ensure that the pagefile remains un-fragmented. Does this still hold true
today??
Thanks in advance for your time and help.
David.
