You mean you never get page faults on your computer?

Hardware faults, Jack. Hardware faults...

And, with respect to page faults, maybe you need 6GB of DRAM, like me

(I'm just kidding, my home PC has .5G, but our newer servers support 6G.

The way Windows is written (and probably the UNICES as well, though I'll have to verify that), I think page faults will still occur. I've got .5G at work as well, and about the same at home. Memory usage at home rarely exceeds half of that, and yet page faults occur. I'm not sure why, but as long as it doesn't occur so frequently that I hear my disks rattle and system response time slow to a crawl, I'm not complaining.
