Hi, Of course this approach was absolutely essential. Windows 2003 institutes per-user files associations (actually per-user CLASSES). Brilliant for registry security etc but at a cost with the average win2003 profile (ntuser.dat) at least 2-3 times bigger. With the NT 4.0/win2k process, scalability would have been halved.

This is why you could only theoretically have no more than 100 users logged into a TS box at one time. Microsoft has changed the way = the users registry loads and where it is placed within RAM.

If the constraint to the number of concurrent users that you can support = is the registry size limitation in Windows NT or Windows 2000, then = Microsoft has fixed it in Windows 2003 so that the registry size limit is no = longer the constraint. Specifically, they have changed it so that the registry lives in user memory now instead of system memory which means that it = can grow without bumping into the constraints that it bumped into when it = was part of the system memory.
