Memory usage (windows)
« on: July 12, 2005, 06:21:31 pm »
Since windows likes to use up so much of my memory, does anyone know a little tweaks, tips, or tricks to get a little bit more out of your xp system? I read an article on it somewhere, don't remember where though.


Note: If you post "download linux, use linux, get linux" or something like that, I'll just delete your post.

Great site: http://www.annoyances.org/

If you have enough memory, I highly recommend keeping kernel in memory at all times.  This is done with the DisablePagingExecutive and possibly LargeSystemCache registry entries.
I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

Running with Code has a new home!
