Ways to optimize Windows system memory efficiency

1, change the location of the page file

The purpose is mainly to maintain the continuity of virtual memory
. Because the hard disk reads data by reading the magnetic material on the magnetic head, and the page file is placed in different areas on the disk, the magnetic head will jump and jump, which is not conducive to improving efficiency. Moreover, there are many system disk files, and the virtual memory is certainly not continuous, so it should be placed on other disks. To change the location of the page file, right-click on "My Computer" and select "Properties → Advanced → Performance Settings → Advanced → Change Virtual Memory" and select the location you want to change in the drive bar. It is worth noting that after moving the page file, the original file will be deleted (the system will not delete it automatically).

2, change the size of the page file

After changing the position of the page file, we can also make some adjustments to its size. We need to pay attention to the adjustment, do not set the maximum and minimum page files to equal values. Because usually the memory will not be really "filled", it will automatically put some of the temporarily unused data into the hard disk when the internal storage reaches a certain level. The larger the minimum page file, the lower the percentage and the slower the execution. The maximum page file is the limit value. Sometimes a lot of programs are opened. The memory and the minimum page file are “filled up” and will automatically overflow to the largest page file. So it is unreasonable to set the two equal. In general, the minimum page file is set smaller so that more data can be stored in memory as much as possible, which is more efficient. The maximum page file is set larger to avoid the situation of “full staff”.

3, disable page file

When you have more than 512MB of memory, the role of the page file will no longer be obvious, so we can disable it. To do this, go to the Registry Editor "HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINESystemCurrentControlSetControlSession Ma-nagerMemoryManagement" and set its value to "1" in the "DisablePa-ging Executive" option.
