I currently have virtual memory setup on drive c with initial size 512MB and
maximum size 1024MB. With 1GB ram, I have yet to see total page file usage
increase beyond 1100MB under heavy load, with about 850MB typical usage, so I
chose these settings. I disable virtual memory, restart and set "custom
size." Settings are held until the computer is restarted or put into sleep or
hibernate mode.
Windows seems to ignore these settings and increases the paging file size to
1535MB for a total of 2462MB, as reported by task manager. Once, Windows
reduced the page file to 0 size whereupon I recieved a warning about low
virtual memory; I do not know why this happened.
