2. Commit charge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commit_charge

   Similar displays in the Task Manager of Windows Vista and later have been changed to reflect usage of physical memory. In Task Manager's "Processes" display, each process's contribution to the "total commit charge" is shown in the "VM size" column in Windows XP and Server 2003. The same value is labeled "Commit size" in Windows Vista and later ...

3. Windows Display Driver Model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Display_Driver_Model

   WDDM drivers allow video memory to be virtualized, [6] and video data to be paged out of video memory into system RAM. In case the video memory available turns out to be insufficient to store all the video data and textures, currently unused data is moved out to system RAM or to the disk. When the swapped out data is needed, it is fetched back.

4. User-Mode Driver Framework - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User-Mode_Driver_Framework

   User-Mode Driver Framework (UMDF) is a device-driver development platform first introduced with Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system, and is also available for Windows XP. It facilitates the creation of drivers for certain classes of devices.

5. Device driver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_driver

   Attempts by the guest operating system to access the hardware are routed to the virtual device driver in the host operating system as e.g., function calls. The virtual device driver can also send simulated processor-level events like interrupts into the virtual machine. Virtual devices may also operate in a non-virtualized environment.

6. Thrashing (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrashing_(computer_science)

   Thrashing occurs when there are too many pages in memory, and each page refers to another page. Real memory reduces its capacity to contain all the pages, so it uses 'virtual memory'. When each page in execution demands that page that is not currently in real memory (RAM) it places some pages on virtual memory and adjusts the required page on RAM.

7. Protected mode - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_mode

   In computing, protected mode, also called protected virtual address mode, [1] is an operational mode of x86-compatible central processing units (CPUs). It allows system software to use features such as segmentation, virtual memory, paging and safe multi-tasking designed to increase an operating system's control over application software.

9. Memory paging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_paging

   Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows Me use a similar file, and the settings for it are located under Control Panel → System → Performance tab → Virtual Memory. Windows automatically sets the size of the page file to start at 1.5× the size of physical memory, and expand up to 3× physical memory if necessary.
