Experiment
with setting the min and max the same(avoid resizing) or just turning
it
off. As long as you're not overloading memory with too many startup
apps you can always reset the swap strategy back to the default if
neither works for you.

at least twice the Vista recommended amount. However, everything
I've ever
read says never turn off virtual memory since applications often ask
for
much more memory then they use and Windows needs to map that memory
somewhere.


Instead of going by what you read, try trying something yourself.
