RE: Reserving Memory for TS or setting Priority?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Prioity & Affinity only pertain to CPU usage, not memory allocation.

Can you elaborate, i.e. Server Version, Number of Sessions, amount of
Installed Memory, amount used... If you've exhaused the paged pool, or
reached the maximum registry size (Win2K only) you will not be able to add
new sessions and the system will become unstable.

The Terminal Services Service does NOT use a lot of memory, i.e. a couple of
MB per session. The applications users run are what consume the majority of
the available user memory. Remember that the maximum amount of user memory
available is 1/2 of the installed memory, as the other 1/2 is dedicated to
system processes.
