virtual memory

[Gary]

What is the maximum virtual memory I can use on my
computer?
766 is recommended, and I have 1000 allocated. What is the
default for both recommended, and allocated?

I think the maximum is just however much disk space you
have. Either that, or a gigabyte or so. The recommended
is something like 3 times your RAM, so you probably have
256mb of RAM. 1000 is fine if you don't mind the extra
disk space being taken up, and you may get performance
gains from choosing a set size for your file, rather than
letting windows dynamically allocate it.
