what tungsten said. you should set it to 150% your physical memory, with a max of 1 GB. over 1 GB the swap file gats too fragmented, and seek times get too high.

I think there are also some performance benefits from using a different physical drive than the one with your OS and apps i.e. in most pc setups, something other than the c drive. Partitioned drives don't count...

I have 1024MB (2-512 sticks), so I shouldn't set the Virtual higher than that?
