What is large page in RAMMap?
Large pages will occupy 512 contiguous 4K pages (assuming large page is 2MB on the architecture) In RamMap, large pages allocated will show up in the Use column as AWE. A single large allocation (> 2MB) does not require the large pages themselves to be contiguous.
Can RAM be restored?
You can’t (in practice). RAM needs to be constantly refreshed to keep “remembering”, when the computer is turned off the charge leaks out after a minute or so. Dynamic random access memory (DRAM) is a type of random access memory that stores each bit of data in a separate capacitor within an integrated circuit.
How much RAM is being used by mapped file?
For example, on this system we have about 7.8GB of RAM being used by Mapped File: Although 7.2 GB of this is Standby and therefore just cached, it still represents a large amount of RAM being used. So what are we using/caching?
