Page file usage is ,the amount of Committed Bytes — I. If the page files are big enough to cover this then there is no problem. Only when Committed Bytes approaches RAM size will you see any memory pressure that results in physical paging.
Memory: Committed Bytes. Number of bytes of virtual not reserved memory that has been committed. Rather, it represents the amount of page file space that would be used if the process was completely made nonresident. Memory: Commit Limit.
Number of bytes of virtual memory that can be committed without having to extend the paging files; if the paging files can be extended, this limit is not hard. To use a reserved region of address space, you must allocate physical storage and then map this storage to the reserved region.
This process is called committing physical storage. Physical storage is always committed in pages. From the above we can conclude that ; the task manager values would not be the exact ones. If you want to monitor the page file usage then PERFMON is the best in this case and will give you an exact idea as to what is the exact usage.
The perfmon logs show the actual Page file usage. Example RAM is mb, Page File is 1gb. Additional tips There is no fixed page file size for a particular role of a server. If you want to determine the right page file size for the system then take a perfmon under the working conditions and then analyze the usage over a period of time. That would give you figures from which you can calculate the paging and set the page file accordingly. Ideally it is recommended as 1.
If the page file is missing or not available, the computer gets random errors or the programs will not work. Many people recommend disabling the page file so that it can be defragged. While it is true that Windows Defrag will not defrag any file in use, there are Defrag utilities capable of performing this task. Later versions of Windows no longer support this utility. There are hundreds of online sites and optimization pages that claim the page file size should be 1. However, this does not take into consideration other important factors and system settings unique to your computer.
Again, let Windows choose what to use instead of relying on some arbitrary formula that worked on a different computer. Storing the page file on a different partition of the same drive as Windows increases the hard drive seek times and reduces system performance.
Configuring your page file to be located o n a different drive or partition may deliver a slight increase in performance. Triple6 Rob.
