I have a Windows 2008 Server 64bit running Exchange 2007 for 160 users. &nbsp;The server has 16GB or RAM. &nbsp;I need to figure out how to configure the page file, I see that by default it is set to System Managed... never done that before but I'm new to Windows 2008. &nbsp;What is the best way to configure the page file for Exchange 2007 on a Windows 2008 Server with this many users? &nbsp;How large should it be? &nbsp;thanks
