- Now that I have 20MB, increased NBUF to 2000 (per the FAQ) and have decided
- to leave the swap space alone (per the discussion in this group), what are
- the performance ramifications of increasing the amount of memory available
- to System 7?
-
- Will A/UX performance decrease (increased paging, or ?) by letting the
- MacOS have access to all 20MB or would overall performance be better by
- limiting MacOS memory?
-
- Also, what effect does the MacOS disk cache setting (memory CDEV) have
- under A/UX? I currently have it set to 1024 which is the same setting I
- use when running System 7 without A/UX.
-
- TIA,
-
- Mike
