ChronoStriker1 Posted January 8, 2002 Share Posted January 8, 2002 What is it used for and is there anyway to make it smaller. Mine has grown to 1059mb a little large considering it only uses up to 400 max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliz Posted January 8, 2002 Share Posted January 8, 2002 The pagefile is used for virtual memory and it's useful. If your pagefile is growing in size that means you have windows 9x or me installed. to make it smaller you have to put a value for the min and max size of "your memory"*1,5. That is the optimal value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MxxCon Posted January 8, 2002 Share Posted January 8, 2002 "your memory"*1,5 if you have up to like 512mb over that you can set it to almost anything cuase it'll be used rarely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
