Hi,
You have noticed that after each use the Page File of Windows XP keeps on increasing. Is there a way by which I can clear that on a regular stop so that the performance is much improved. how to do that. Second thing how to optimize windows memory to get a better performance from the input and output device. My USB, webcam, etc renders a very low and slow performance. Thanks in advance.
The size of the paging file (swap) is increasing more and more as and uses your operating system. This trick allows to empty each extinction of Windows. When there is more RAM available, Windows uses a file called swap to store on the hard drive that normally would store in RAM. However, if the RAM is emptied at each stop or restart the PC, it is not the same for the swap, which grows gradually as the use of Windows and therefore retains some outdated information, see exploitable third attacker.
To clean this file at each Windows shutdown you will have to edit the registry. Run the registry file by typing regedit on the run box. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ Session Manager \ Memory Management. On the right side of the window, then double click the value ClearPageFileAtShutdown then enter 1 in the data field value. Click OK. Close the registry and then restart your computer for the changes.
Yes it is right that by the above solution the page file can be cleared at a gap of every 5 to 10 seconds. But one thing you have to ensure that registry edition can cause server errors in Windows. For that when you run the editor click on the file and then export. Save the backup on a desired location so that you can restore that back in case of failure.
This trick will allow us to optimize memory, focusing especially on the memory allocated to the inputs / outputs. For that it is necessary to do some changes in the Windows Registry. Open the editor and go HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SYSTEM / CurrentControlSet / Control / Session Manager: Memory Management. Create or edit the DWORD value IoPageLockLimit. Give the value depending on your amount of RAM (in hexadecimal value). Like for example for 128 MB of RAM: 0001C000, for 256 MB of RAM: 0003C000, for 384 MB of RAM: 0005C000, for 512 MB of RAM: 00,070,000 and for 1024 MB RAM: 000f0000
It is quite difficult to find a relevant value for IoPageLockLimit. We can nevertheless establish the following rule. If you have less than 64 MB of RAM, you must subtract 7 MB to your total amount of RAM before converting to hex. Between 64 and 512, subtract your 16 MB total RAM before converting to hex. And From 512 MB, you must subtract your 64 MB total RAM before converting to hex.
