Memory Management
Under Virtual memory, you can configure settings for systems with more than
256 MB RAM. On such systems, deactivating the swapping of drivers and the
system core can increase the performance of the system. You can specify
whether the Windows system core and drivers are always kept in the physical
memory or if they can be moved to the paging file if necessary.
Under Paging file, you can configure settings that affect the management of your
physical and virtual memory. If you wish, you can have the entire paging file
overwritten with zeros when you shut your computer down to protect your
privacy. Please note however that enabling this setting will drastically increase
the time your system needs to shut down.
Memory Usage
Here, you can adapt how Windows makes use of your physical memory to meet
your needs.
