Come to think of it, I think it's time to shrink it down. The pagefile itself doesn't cause any problems, atleast none that I could see. I'll tone it down, see how it turns out.
I just say it becuase often Windows will use it before actual ram, and the speed difference can be.... annoying [/QUOTE]Ouch! Is this mitigated by having a smaller pagefile or does Windows sometimes use it in preference regardless of the size?

Will the 2GB per process limit be overcome in Vista? It's not inconceivable that games might benefit from such in a couple of years...
