Hello Eric,
It is not related to this your post but to the older one – about using paging file. I did not find a way to reply you there.
I am among the ones who recommends everybody to reset it (to set to None) in all (usually non-SSD) drives. Sure – after ensuring enough RAM in system. My comp has 16GB RAM. While using Android studio and running emulator, as well as running VMWARE sometimes, Visual Studio open, few MS office programs, holding a lot of tabs in Chrome…
Still I never hit my RAM meanwhile. If it will – my new comp (when I will purchase it) will have 32GB RAM. Currently my peak commit is not even close to 16GB. However pagefile.sys size is more than 6GB. And amount of paging writes is high. After disabling it I feel my computer is more silent. And the performance (responsiveness – not CPU performance) is significantly improved. And here is the point. Since using DMA, paging effect on CPU is relatively low – like it appears in your tests few years ago. However when using I/O intensive applications – here paging comes in and disturbs. I am not sure, but IMHO paging I/O is prioritized in I/O queues over application I/O requests. SSD life time is also a consideration against using paging (with SSD). Crash dump can be configured separately from virtual memory paging – like you mention. I believe that the reason for it is the way Microsoft Windows’ MM manages the processes’ Working Set. It looks like the pages may go out to disk regardless of amount of RAM. Just to keep working set to processes’ locality. The performance is not affected probably because there is no need to re-read the swapped out page if its physical frame was not yet re-used meanwhile – usual improvement for virtual memory paging system.
NB: One point that I discovered during recent migration of OS from HDD to SSD – I discovered that there is a hidden SSD in my laptop (32GB) connected through separate mSATA bus that was used for Inter Rapid Start for pre-Win10 and now it was useless for me… So I repartitioned it and made it paging dedicated device… There it can not disturb all other I/O.
