Interesting Pagefile observation

XP Pro SP2. Works great and I don't have any problems, just an
interesting observation. I don't recall ever making any changes to my
pagefile settings but it is set to Custom size:

Initial size 768 MB
Maximum size 1536 MB

Total paging file for all drives

Minimum 2 MB
Recommended 766 MB
Currently allocated 768 MB

I'm not real concerned about it and don't plan on changing it since
everything works great, just real curious how and why it got set that
way. I thought the default was System managed size.

The default is what you have for 512 meg of RAM.

If you knew half as much as you think you know,
You'd realize you didn't know what you thought you knew!

Yep, I've got 512 MB of RAM. I just thought the default was System
Managed pagefile, not Custom.

Thanks Crusty
