I have had a problem where my laptop lags anytime that I do anything even slightly heavy for it (photoshop cs4, HD videos, etc). I understand that pages in/sec refers to some kind of function dealing with when RAM gets low, but not much beyond that. I have 3GB of RAM on the computer and I've never seen it using above 1.5GB.
I did all the usual stuff to try to fix it (drivers up to date, spyware/virus scan, downing the OS display settings, disabling some startup programs, etc) and finally asked someone in computer sciences if he had any ideas and he told me to take a system performance test and send him the report. he tells me that my pages input/sec is extremely high (a healthy computer should have <10 pages in per second, and mine had 968 and 1333 in two tests), and 0 pages out/sec.
I need to use photoshop to complete my work, but it just lags too much tfor me to work with anymore. anybody have an idea on what may be causing this?
