Do we use SIMMS? If so, what speed? 100/80 ns? Also, we're trying to figure out what an optimal allocation of SWAPFILE.SYS and PAGEFILE.SYS should be for a VMS environment where typically 2 or 3 people are compiling C source most of the time. Any pointers here would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance! Ram Ganapathi WEITEK Corp. Sunnyvale, CA 94086 ram@jetsun.weitek.com {sun,pyramid}!weitek!ram 408 738 8400
