[QUOTE="Evjl's Rain, post: 826494, member: 51905"] windows is smart in managing memory usage but some programs don't. They keep pushing/hiding their actual memory usage in pagefile regardless of windows' commands so they look great in task manager. They will use pagefile no matter how much free ram we have left AVs usually do so this is not good for SSD if we install a third-party AV, it's better to use the ones which don't abuse pagefile or they have very low memory usage in total my experience shows my laptop ran noticeably faster without pagefile because everything was placed in physical RAM I've never ever got a BSOD with pagefile off due to out-of-memory except in 2 situations - Emsisoft + gaming: always had BSODs after 20 mins of playing, always! + memory optimization pushed memory blocks into pagefile (that's why they say it might perform slower), but since I disabled pagefile, this option didn't do anything for me. Emsisoft still used the exact same amount of memory => emsisoft is always out of my choice because of my personal condition, not because it is not good - uninstalling panda: huge memory leak and bsod [/QUOTE]
