I expect I'm being premature. It's now using 12+GB of memory.. I'll give it until Monday before drawing any conclusions.

Dear all, Our virtual CAS server was using 14.6GB of memory (reported in task manager, out of a total of 16GB). We wanted to see what, if any, effects would have on the performance if we doubled its memory to 32GB. The only thing that changed is that the server now seems to be using /less/ memory overall. Task manager currently says less than 10GB of memory is in use. All three other CAS are running at almost 14.6GB memory still. The server is running Exchange 2010 SP1 on Windows Server 2008 R2 x64. The MSExchange RpcClientAccess\User Count performance counter was exceeding 1300, and more than the physical servers were reporting. I'm really intrigued by this behaviour. Can anyone shed any light on it? Richard PS One thing I haven't done is increased the pagefile size to match the new memory. It's still 17GB. --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
