Pagefile setting
Hiya,
I had an idea which at first seemed to be brilliant, but then it went down again.
There is a program called ramdisk which creates a partition that uses the RAM.
I thought hey, why not put the pagefile in that partition, so i would have RAMpagefile. Superfast?
But then i remembered ram is wiped every time you reboot, so i don't know, i think it would screw up my pagefile.
I just wrote that on top so that other people might have the chance to try this, because i abandoned it :P
My real question is, i have 12 GB's of RAM and i don't know if i need pagefile.
I've read that it reduces fragmentation, no file swapping etc, but also some programs use the pagefile for some reason, and if i disable it, an error message would appear to those programs saying Out of memory.
I sometimes use 3dsmax and Ulead Videostudio, do i really need pagefile?
Sorry for the long thread,
Thanks,
Alex.
