Store.exe in memory - limited size setting ?

[mitzysman]

When I was on 5.5 I had limited the store.exe to 640 megs b/c of memory issues I had. I seems that this limit has carried over to my exchange 2003 installation ??

I have completed the upgrade (different server) and am now in native mode.

Does anyone know if there is a setting that limits the amount of memory the store can use. I have 2 gigs and it keeps staying at approx 640 megs.

thank you !

What? You want Store.exe to use more memory now? I believe in 2003 exchange manages how much memory store.exe uses and its not as problematic as it was in 5.5

Well I just wanted to make sure I wasn't limiting it's memory in anyway. I used to do it in 5.5 b/c the store would use every byte of memory.

I currently have 30 users on exchange clients and 270 pop clients. I'm going to convert the 270 pop users to full exchange clients and didn't want to have a memory issue.

What version of server are you using? As long as you're not using SBS or Server 2000 Standard, you can use the /3GB option in the boot.ini to have it use more memory. Here is a link to the Microsoft article that talks about it.

I hope this helps.
