    There is a great deal of myth surrounding this question. Two big fallacies are:

    The file should be a fixed size so that it does not get fragmented, with minimum and maximum set the same

    The file should be 2.5 times the size of RAM (or some other multiple)

    Both are wrong

    ooooo ... I'ma change my maximum to 800mb for the time being then .....

    I found the section, "Why is there so little free Ram?", interesting. The conclusion is "free ram is wasted ram".

    Programs that purport to ‘manage’ or ‘free up’ RAM are pandering to a delusion that only such ‘Free’ RAM is available for fresh uses.
