Hi, I have a question about the physical memory view in task on manager on our prod server. Currently, the stats are as follows:

Total: 3.9GB
Physical: 3.26GB
System Cache: 3.35GB

The system cache continually grows over time. Is this because f the suspect memory leak or is this normal?
 
A memory leak would show in the physical memory used by the process.

I think your virtual memory setting could be higher. JMO.

So, the physical memory will grow if I had a memeory leak?

And how come the cache just grows, but never goes down unless I restart the service or reboot?

And I always like your opinion, so I can I set the virtual memory to be higher and to what setting?
 
And I made a mistake:

It is listed as:

Total: 3.9GB
AVAILABALE: 3.26GB
System Cache: 3.35GB
 
I lile to set VM to be a fixed size, 2 to 3 times physical RAM. Ideally it should be on a different local drive than the OS.

C: = small OS drive, D: larger data drive or local raid.
