Virtual Memory vs RAM use

frank_peacock · ‎12-13-2003

Hello

How does CVF control virtual memory usage?

I have a program that has a very large VM size and smallish RAM size. I would prefer to have the program only use RAM and not VM at all? Is this possible to control within CVF?

Thanks

CVF doesn't "control" virtual memory use at all - that's the operating system's job. I think there are Win32 API routines you can use to "lock" pages in memory, but I would advise you to let the OS take care of it - frequently referenced pages will stay in RAM. If you have performance problems due to insufficient RAM, well, add more RAM! It's cheap...
