Let's say, the hardware looks like this:
P4 - 3.2GHz, not dual core
RAM - 2G
Video - Decent, 6800 w/ 256
HD - Two of them, a 7,200 noname and a (new) 10,000 WD
MB - Whatever goes out that week as a Dell XPS 400
Windows XP
What is the best strategy for placement of Windows swap files vs. where the application files live?
It is a speedy CPU, plenty of RAM... It seems to me the tradeoff is in the speed of access to application files vs. the windows swap file. When starting out, I put a big swap file on the fast drive. Seems faster, but you know how the mind sees what it wants to...
What are other's experiences?
