Then a truly RAM only drive would be a good fit for the pagefile- it =
could
use cheaper RAM and no hard drive. For the most part, we don't need to
maintain the pagefile across reboots or after a lockup.

All the Tigi "drive" is RAM with a HD for redundancy purposes.  If power =

you are running the OS on it, or have data on it (like a DB).

Yeah, the problem is the regular flash memory can only be written to
something like 10,000 times, so TiGi uses a different type of memory =
than
the stuff that's in a normal CF or SD card.

That's why it's so expensive.

Yes, but these are VERY expensive.  We demoed one here, and saw the
performance increase.  But this wouldn't be economical for TS servers. =
DB
servers, yes.  If you need to increase the amount of transactions per =
minute
by using your existing servers.

We have been doing that for years with NetX thin clients using flash
drives.... ; ) Only problem is they still can't seem to keep the =3D3D
processor cool enough to not require a fan, so no matter how hard you =
try
there is usually at least one moving part if you want your client to =
have
any =3D3D type of processing power.... JK

Why don't we get rid of the software page and figure out how we can do =
=3D =3D3D
=3D3D3D it with hardware.  RAM is so cheap these days, figure out a way =
to use
=3D =3D3D =3D3D3D flash memory in conjunction with RAM so in a crash you =
still
have your =3D =3D3D =3D3D3D pagefile.  While we are at it can we get =
larger flash
memorys so we can =3D3D =3D3D3D get rid of hard drives with moving parts =
all
together?  I vote for no =3D3D =3D3D3D moving parts, who's with me!

I have 4gb of memory on a 2003 citrix server.
=3D3D3D20
What should I be setting my paging file to? I currently have it set to =
=3D =3D3D
=3D3D3D 4096 min to 4096 max. I also see a mention of 'let windows =
manage the
paging file' option.=3D3D3D20 =3D3D3D20 Anyone have any thoughts on =
this?
=3D3D3D20 Thanks..
