Is there a recommend swap file size that needs to be setup when using SWX office and windows 2000 professional? I know Windows 2000 has a better memory manager and on previous windows environments it was recommended that a swap file be created 2-4x's the ram size. Does anyone know what is recommended on Windows 2000. Currently 2000 sets up a swap 2x's the ram.

Thanks for your feedback. I am in new territory here.

"Experts" recommend that whatever the virtual memory is set to, that the min and max values be set to be the same.(min=750mb, max=750mb for example) I have used 2x with 512mb and with 1024 mb ram.
