More on Windows and Memory

[steve]

Hi All

So if I mount 4 GB of memory on a Win 2K Server (not
Advanced Server) I get that:

2GB are used in Kernel mode and 2GB in User mode


.... so far so good.


But what if I mount 3GB of memory?

Will I have:

A) 1GB used in Kernel and 2GB in User mode

or

B) 2GB used in Kernel and 1 in User mode

or something else?

Thank you!!!

You get 2GB + 2GB, where 1GB might be paged. This article might be
interesting:
