http://cubicspot.blogspot.com/2009/06/bad-design-windows-task-manager.html If "Commit Charge - Total" is greater than "Physical Memory - Total" then you have surpassed physical memory availability and Windows will start swapping pages of RAM out to disk so that the program can continue executing. Figuring out how much memory (RAM and disk storage) your program is ACTUALLY using is not possible with Task Manager. -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President Ph: 517-803-4197 *NEW* MyTaskFocus 1.1 Get on task.
