There have been a couple of similar reports here. 20M seems to be
the default value when the system (for one reason or another)
doesn't like the values that you have set.
Here are 2 quotes from previous posts that I saved:
"I FINALLY got it to change, but only by going through the Wizard
under Help. THEN, the Min/Max values were blank, and when I set
them to 4095 and restarted, it showed VMem as 4095."
"I had a similar problem with a server that was recommending a
high virtual memory setting due to large amount of physical RAM.
If you tried to set the recommended setting, the server would
reset to 20MB. In the end I found that the total of Paging file
and Registry size had to be less than 4096. Once I set this if
worked OK."
