Question : Understanding Task Manager - Performance

I know the best way to improve performance is to increase RAM. But from these Performance results just how badly do I need it (I never quite understand the counters!)
Although memory is reasonably cheap I would still like to produce an evidence based case.

We have SBS 2003 premium with 3Gb of RAM.
3 more people on the network (22 in total).
Blackberry Enterprise Server installed 8 weeks ago.
Increase in complaints of slow network - files and applications.

PF Usage = 3.5 - 3.6 GB

(the xxx's indicate the part of the figure changing most, either up or down)

Commit Charge:
Total     3788xxx
Limit      7176100
Peak      4145944

Physical Memory
Total      3144900
Avail      25xxxx
System cache      311xxx

Kernel Memory
Total      145508
Paged      85072
nonpaged     60432


Answer : Understanding Task Manager - Performance

Hi,

OK, without going increasing with the physical RAM for now. Atleast increase the virtual RAM: http://www.petri.co.il/pagefile_optimization.htm
Once this is done then analyze the situation once again.
