You might want to hop over to sysinternals and grab their pagedefrag utility. Defrag utilities don't usually defragment the paging file since it's in use normally. I haven't tried it myself but it may eek out a bit more performance for you."Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance." - H. L. Mencken

Hello, I just reformatted my OS hd and am wonder about swapfile size and such to better my Poser experience. Here's my setup... Athlon XP 2500+ (2ghz) 1.5 GB PC 3200 DDR Ram 30gb 7200rpm Maxtor Internal HD(OS and program files) 40gb 7200rpm Maxtor Internal HD(SwapFile and small amount of storage) 160gb 7200rpm Maxtor Internal HD(Poser 6 only) 160gb 7200rpm Maxtor External USB 2.0 HD (Storage Only) MSI KV7 something or another mainboard 333mhz FSB GeForce FX 5600 128mb AGP video card (negligable as doesn't help rendering) Rest of hardware standard and doesn't affect Poser-ing! So what I'm wondering is an optimal swapfile size... I have mine set min & max to 2500mb and it's basically on it's own on a drive with some never touched crap being stored there (so I suppose I could just burn it and delete...) WinXP PRo suggests a swapfile of 2406mb. Is there an "OPTIMAL" size or config that would really make Poser 6 go "BAM!" in a good way? Are there any benefits to those memory optimizer programs out there? Might that be a way to help things? I defrag weekly and run check disk monthly so I just want to see what I can do to see some better rendering times etc. Also I know my rig is borderline ghetto but I can't justify to myself upgrading at this time as all my components serve there purpose and I really don't want to get BACK into the habit of constantly upgrading my pc everytime there's a slight hiccup in the system or something new & shiny comes out... :( Thanks!! I look forward to any input on this!! Gerard
