The x86 OS will only see 3gb Ram in any case so you don't need to worry too much.

Servers have 16Gb RAM. Hardware was originally sized for x64 but we must go with x86. How big should the swap file be if server has 16Gb RAM? If I follow the RAM X 1.5 rule I will end up with a 24GB swap which seems like overkill. I have the disk space but was wondering what the best practice is or if there are dissadvantages in using a large swapfile. Thanks Angela ________________________________ Browse profiles for free!
