well, I'm not sure we're saying the exact same thing. The point I was trying to make was, that while a great portion of the executive's memory is going to be active all the time, and stay in RAM, a portion of it will also go unused and be candidates for the pagefile. I said I doubt that something is going to access every single page of the executive's memory. I didn't say that I thought paging activity of the executive's memory was going to be rampant, which I think is what you're saying.
