Cache Allocation and Virtual Memory
Posted: Wed May 09, 2012 2:06 pm
Will starwind use virtual memory for cache when it runs out of conventional memory?
e.g. 3 targets using 2 GB cache on a machine with only 3 GB RAM.
I have seen it allocate 2GB for the first target but not for the other 2 targets... even though virtual memory should make this possible?
Might sound a bit of a stupid question, but I was expecting to see the pagefile get used, I'm unable to fully test this at present due to a shortage of resources!
