Never dealt much with paging files, so asking this...

I updated my RAM today, from 384 to 768 mb. (from 1x128 + 1x256 to 1x512 + 1x256).

As result of this, I'd like to make sure my paging file settings are correct.

They are currently as follows:

Paging file is on C, which is the drive containing the OS.
Space available on C is 40+ gb.
Set to custom size; Initial size 576, max 1152.

Total paging for all drives:
min 2 mb
recommended 1150
currently allocated 576

Should I make changes to this, seeing as I now have 768 mb of ram instead of 384? Just trying to make the most out of the machine's performance.

I'll hafta say adding more memory has increased the responsiveness of apps and the OS in general visibly.
