Pagefile = hard drive space and speed + latency. The pagefile does not increase, in your case if the pagefile is used in full then the OS will use the ram memory but it will not tell you that the ram is being used and yes cached. It is good to leave the pagefile to a minimum, ram is faster than pagefile / hdd's and most ssd's. Only drawback for some programs is that ram is volatile and pagefile is a written cache.
Yes.And I am using Win7 64-bit, which can make use of all of the memory. Are you using a 64-bit OS?
I'm using CrystalDiskInfo http://crystalmark.info/software/Cry...o/index-e.html to check host writes.How much RAM do you have? I run a quad-core, with 8 GB RAM and a generation 1 SSD. It runs up to 4 CEP2 work units at a time, and while I see a lot of disk activity, it is nothing like that.
Commit is the ram being used.
Cached ram is there if needs to be used, the process may or may not have being killed.
Available - Cache = Free
I would be grateful if you could check how much cached ram you have while using BOINC with 4 CEP2 work units. In my case used to be between 800~1.280MB of cached ram per work unit.
