When I run Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5, memory usage of Store.exe, as viewed from Task Manager Processes, is considerably higher than in previous versions of Microsoft Exchange Server. I know that SP4 eleminates most of ther problems but I want to escalate this further, specifically I am wondering:
Why is this? How does it take up memory? What are the specific numbers of the amount of memory is takes up?
Microsoft's Responce...
Significant changes were made to the database engine allowing Microsoft Exchange Server to better use large memory and multiple processor servers. In particular, Performance Optimizer will set the
maximumnumber of information store and directory database buffers to much higher values than before(approximately the amount of available RAM divided by 4K).
