I read the KB http://support.microsoft.com/kb/312628 and it states the Available Memory Bytes counter will never reach 0, but doesn't explain why other than the fact that it comprises of the Free List, Standby List, and Zero List. Can anyone explain? |

Can anyone explain? It could in theory reach 0 but the system will become extremely slow at this point because it will be trying to trim all working sets and internal caches to create more available pages. -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. |
