Re: performance

Generally, it isn't going to help. It's best to let Windows handle the page
file. You can change it to a different drive, which can help a little. But,
most of the time the performance increase is minimal.

Can't hurt.

I've always set a fixed page file size. And I have it on a different
disk than my system disk as well.
