  3. Page (computer memory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_(computer_memory)

    A system with a smaller page size uses more pages, requiring a page table that occupies more space. For example, if a 2 32 virtual address space is mapped to 4 KiB (2 12 bytes) pages, the number of virtual pages is 2 20 = (2 32 / 2 12). However, if the page size is increased to 32 KiB (2 15 bytes), only 2 17 pages are required. A multi-level ...

    Windows XP x64 can support much more memory; although the theoretical memory limit a 64-bit computer can address is about 16 exabytes, Windows XP x64 is limited to 128 GB of physical memory and 8 terabytes of virtual memory per process while the practical limit is usually the size of the pagefile. Windows XP Professional x64 Edition and Windows ...

    4. Quite frankly, 12 gigabytes for a paging file is an outrageous size. Excuse me while I delete some expletives. OK, I'm still running XP designed around 25 years ago, but I have a mere 4GB of RAM, and my paging file is 200 MB, ie 5% of RAM, and Windows rarely complains.

    In this case the page is paged out to a secondary store located on a medium such as a hard disk drive (this secondary store, or "backing store", is often called a swap partition if it is a disk partition, or a swap file, swapfile or page file if it is a file). When this happens the page needs to be taken from disk and put back into physical memory.

    The first, Windows XP 64-Bit Edition, was intended for IA-64 systems; as IA-64 usage declined on workstations in favor of AMD's x86-64 architecture, the Itanium edition was discontinued in January 2005. [57] A new 64-bit edition supporting the x86-64 architecture, called Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, was released in April 2005. [58]

    However, "client" versions of 32-bit Windows (Windows XP SP2 and later, Windows Vista, Windows 7) limit physical address space to the first 4 GB for driver compatibility [16] even though these versions do run in PAE mode if NX support is enabled. Windows 8 and later releases will only run on processors which support PAE, in addition to NX and SSE2.

    Specifically, a page file on Windows XP will probably be fragmented on a clean disk with free space, be it fixed size or system managed, even if it is not used, and even if the disk is entirely defragmented. Windows doesn't normally create a contiguous pagefile.sys.
