RE: E2K's memory usage
Title: RE: E2K's memory usage Just leave it alone. Exchange is allocating a lot because no other program is asking for memory and you did not limit the memory usage. As soon as some other process will require memory STORE will give up what it's not using. Relax and enjoy your environment you should not have any performance problems. Don't forget to backup.

It runs on an IBM Netfinity 5100 w/933 PIII processor. At first, it had 512MB of RAM. And there was plenty memory left. But the size of the memory used by the STORE.EXE process kept on increasing. Pretty soon, all the server's memory was being used (or commited). Recently, I decided to buy 512MB more. The server is now running w/1024MB of RAM. Again, the first weeks, there was memory left, about 350MB. But now, the freakin' STORE.EXE uses almost 600MB of RAM and the server's memory is maxed once again. I would be surprised if we had A LOT of users, but right now, we are about 20 users. No OWA. Straight mail and a small Public store (about 150MB). What on earth is happening??? Is this normal?

RE: E2K's memory usage
You'd rather the memory be left unused?

Very normal.

RE: E2K's memory usage
Did you run the EXCHANGE optimizer after you installed the additional RAM?

Once again, with no E2K running, I miss those subtle little hints in the subject.
