I dont know if this is in the right spot, so mods feel free to move it.
I know the purpose of the pagefile and all, but I just wanted to check one more time while I was thinking about this. I currently have 8gb of ram in my machine and never have enough stuff open to get anywhere near using that much. Therefore, I went ahead and told windows to not use a pagefile. I was just wondering though, would there still be benefits to using a pagefile that I am not aware of? Something I dont know about that would still be good to allow windows to manage a pagefile as opposed to just completely disabling it?
