I'm the first to admit that I will forever be a student of technology, and if someones got a better idea I'm glad to listen. However this sounded somewhat questionable.
I was on a remote session with a client that purchased new computers for their entire shop. The IT person has them running Windows 8 with 2GB of RAM because the machines all have SSDs. He's increased the page file system to supplement the memory. If you go to task manager you now see 4GB of memory.
This seems like a neat trick, but does it work? I thought paging was bad, is that only true when dealing with HDDs?
Thoughts, opinions, speculation.
