another noobish question..

[mike2010]

I was messing around with the virtual memory yesterday on my Vista PC. (not a server) And noticed it help performance quick well.

Was wondering if this type of technology is available or already incorporated in server usage as well ? (using disk space memory to add additional server memory )

I'm running a Plesk with CentOs / Apache... duel intel xeon processer.. 3.0

When creating a server there are requirements for the initial install. They are located in the Virtuozzo installation guide. an example might be for a 1 tb server

/ root = 10240 mb
/ swap = 32768 mb (twice ram)
/ vz = the remainder of the hard drive space
