You can choose to optimize your computer's memory usage. If you use your computer
primarily as a workstation, rather than as a server, you can have more memory devoted to
your programs. Your programs will work faster and your system cache size will be the
default size that came with Windows XP. You can also specify to set aside more computer
memory for a larger system cache, if your computer is used primarily as a server, or if
you use programs that require a larger cache.
- Click Start, click Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System.
- Click the Advanced tab, and then click Settings under Performance.
- Click the Advanced tab, and then do one of the following under Memory usage:
- Click Programs if you use your computer primarily as a workstation, rather than as a server, to have more memory devoted to your programs.
- Click System cache if your computer is used primarily as a server, or if you use
programs that require a larger cache.
