Better use of memory in win 2003 system

  

If a system is to be more effective, it must be used efficiently, such as memory or hard disk, especially memory, memory plays a decisive role in the system, so how to use memory efficiently is A key, so today this tutorial teaches you how to do it?

Method one, adjust the size of the cache area. The so-called cache means that when the system reads data on the disk or the optical disk, it adopts the technology of "pre-reading", that is, pre-reading the data to be read into the memory cache. The CPU reads data faster in the cache, which increases the speed of operation. Setting the cache in memory can significantly speed up the reading of data. Windows can automatically set the size of the cache according to the size of the memory. Of course, users can also set the size of the cache in memory according to their own memory to optimize the use of memory. The method is as follows:

Right click on the desktop and click “My Computer”; in the pop-up menu, click “Attributes”; in the pop-up window, click ““Performance” Click the "File System" button below; click on the "Hard Disk" tab; drag & ldquo; read-ahead optimization & rdquo; adjustment lever, set pre-read conditions; in & ldquo; main use of the computer & rdquo; The column setting system utilizes the proportion of the cache; if the system has more memory, you can select "network server", so the system will use more memory as the cache; in the CD-ROM label, you can directly adjust how much the system uses. Memory as a CD-xviii) ROM disc read and write cache, pay attention to the "best access method" in the "four-speed or higher speed", so the system will set the size of the cache according to the situation; can also adjust “Additional cache size"adjustment bar in the column, xxii) Additional cache.

Method 2, monitor memory. No matter how big the system's memory is, it will always run out. Although there is virtual memory, because the read and write speed of the hard disk cannot be compared with the speed of the memory, the large and frequent use of virtual memory will make the computer operation unbearable. So when using memory, always monitor the memory usage. A system monitor is provided in the Windows operating system to monitor memory usage. There is also an easy way to select the “Help/About Windows” menu in any file window. You can see the current memory usage in the open window. Generally, if only 60% of the memory resources are available, At this time, you should pay attention to adjust the memory, otherwise it will seriously affect your running speed and system performance.

Method three, release the memory in time. If you find that the system has less memory, pay attention to freeing up memory. The so-called release of memory is to release the data residing in the memory from the memory. The easiest and most effective way to free up memory is to restart your computer. The other is to shut down running programs that are not in use, including programs that run in the background. Usually, you should develop such a good habit and close programs, files or windows that you don't use at any time. Some applications can't be closed in the normal way. At this time, you need to perform a hot start, such as pressing ld+;CTRL+ALT+DEL”; Also note that if you store a picture or image in the clipboard, the picture or image is Take up a lot of memory, then just cut a few words, you can flush the original picture on the clipboard in the memory, thus releasing a large amount of memory it occupies; also, printing files in the background will also occupy A lot of memory space.

Method 4, optimize the data in memory. In Windows, the more data that resides in memory, such as the shortcut icons on the desktop, the icons in the taskbar, and the time in the system tray, all occupy memory resources. Therefore, the shortcut icons on the desktop and in the taskbar should not be set too much. If the memory resources are tight, you can consider optimizing these projects, and try to use a variety of background-resident programs, especially badly designed programs, which consume a lot of memory resources. When you are operating your computer, do not open too many files or windows, or open too many data files in the program. If it is open, close these files or windows when you no longer use them. In addition, after using the computer for a long time, if you do not restart the computer, the data arrangement in the memory may be confusing and the performance of the system will be degraded. Then you should consider restarting the computer.

Method 5, improve the performance of other components of the system. The performance of other parts of the computer also has a greater impact on the use of memory, such as bus type, CPU, hard disk, video memory and so on. If the memory is too small and the amount of data displayed is large, it is impossible to increase the speed of the system and the performance of the system. If the speed of the hard disk is too slow, especially the average seek time and speed is too slow, it will seriously affect the read and write speed and performance of the system's virtual memory, resulting in a decline in the performance of the entire system.

There are quite a few ways to improve memory efficiency, but it is best to try to find out which method is more suitable for your system, especially in the win 2003 system, you should choose the method that suits you best, so that The stability and efficiency of the system can be improved.
