Windows Server 2003 swap file size

Asked by markgeer in Windows 2000 Operating System

Tags: 2003, swap, file, size, windows

We are getting a new Oracle database server with 4GB  of RAM that will run Windows Server 2003.  What is the minimum or optimum swap file size for W2K3 server with 4GB of RAM?  Is it possible to run W2K3 server without a swap file?

Maybe this should be a separate question, but I'm wondering if W2K3 supports a "RAM drive" or if there are third-party utilities than can use part of the RAM as a high-speed, pseudo disk with W2K3 server.  I would like to put the Oracle temporary tablespace in RAM if possible, since it is fairly I/O intensive and it does not need to be protected in case of a power outage or system crash.Start Free Trial
