I looked in the task manager, and noticed that every task was using approximately
equal amounts of memory and pagefile. Also, under the performance tab, a fair
amount of pagefile is being used.
I have 3GB ram.
I have set the pagefile to 20-30MB on each of the two hard disks. Putting zero or
smaller amounts on either drive seems to make it ignore me and create whopping great
GB swaps!
At the moment, task manager claims to be using 469MB of pagefile (in the performance
tab), and under the processes tab, VM sizes are similar to Mem usage sizes, the
largest application using 188MB of ram and 198MB of VM.
Yet that actual pagefile.sys files in the root of the two drives are both 30MB! How
can this be?
