Hmm, I guess you're the one who doesn't understand. There's certainly some info on the internet where you can look up how virtual memory works in detail, but here it is in short:
The virtual memory handler is part of the Windows kernel (not of WED). Virtual memory consists of physical memory plus a hard disk space that you've reserved (or not). Windows first uses the physical memory, and then when running out of it begins to swap memory pages to the hard disk.
All programs on your computer use virtual memory for storing their data, and terminate (or crash) when running out of it. Thus it was a bad idea to disable your hard disk allocation for virtual memory.
No I understand very well how memory is handled in Windows....
For someone who doesn't have a lot of physical memory on their computer certainly it would not be advisable...
But I have had virtual memory turned off for over a year and can confirm that everthing ( except A6 ) runs quite well running from virtual memory.
If you actually try it on A Newer top-line computer system with 1GB+ you would understand exactly what I'm saying...
In Short is there a way to configure WED/ The A6 Engine to Realize that Physically memory is being used and ignore that I have little or ( no virtual memory ) being used.
Would make it easier than have to re-enable virtual Memory and re-start just to launch WED - RUN.
