Default Re: [OT] virtual memory

If you have enough RAM you can try to disable virtual memory altogether.
If you get out of memory errors or warnings you can enable it.

If you can work without virtual memory it is prefarable, as it will speed up the computer some.
If you must use VM try to set it to a fixed size, the scaling of it up and down also takes some time, and if it is a fixed size you can do a boot defrag on it, if it's dynamic it will fragmantize.
