>That's a good starting point at least; there are lots of things that can alter the optimal size, such as extensive use of memory-mapped files, large clipboards, or having lots of things that sit and sleep, and while inactive, can safely be swapped out to disk. I tend to run a good deal larger than that, with swap file segments on each physical drive to help balance the I/O load.
Evan and Ed, I checked out that NTFAQ.COM site (great resource!) and it says:
The pagefile should be size of memory +11MB (or 2.5 times size of SAM file, which ever is larger).
So what is the SAM file?
