I find that bit about turning off or disabling memory paging interesting coming from Presonus, as I’ve always been warned that Windows needs SOME paging memory even if you have a ton of RAM (just not the 1-1/2 times your memory size rule of thumb amount of paging memory). Is that still true with Windows 8.1 and 10? Anyone know?
I have 16 gigs of RAM and would happily turn off paging memory!

[EDIT] - Here is a discussion of that over at Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/3ispnp/is_a_page_file_really_needed_with_16gb_of_ram/
[EDIT2] - And here is likely an even better answer: http://superuser.com/questions/810170/should-i-disable-swap-file-if-i-have-lots-of-ram-or-should-i-move-it-to-a-virtua
[EDIT3] - A really good answer for Win7 and likely beyond where tests were done: https://tweakhound.com/2011/10/10/the-windows-7-pagefile-and-running-without-one/

Conclusion - I’m leaving mine on, but set to 3000 min/max for now, as that is more than adequately above my peak commit. I will test later allowing the system to manage it, and will watch what settings it goes for over time, and then make those the min/max with a little headroom.
