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.

On some of the proprietary OSs and unixii (
) I've worked on, paging can really be reduced with larger memories. Of course, a lot of that was before I started working in Windows bloat-land.
