From: Peter da Silva Date: 12:18 on 16 Aug 2007 Subject: Dear Windows. I have 2GB RAM... Dear Windows. I have 2GB RAM. What bloody good is a nominal 20MB paging file going to do me? Why do I need a bleeding paging file at all when I have 2GB RAM? UNIX is happy to let me fly naked, and it's much more anal about its environment than you are, so what in the name of all the demons in Redmond do you need that dinky little paging file for? While I'm on the subject, why do you time out clean pages from your buffer cache when you've got 1.5GB of free memory? As far as I can tell even Vista still does this. Do you think pages get cooties after a while or something?
