Change the size of virtual memory
If you receive warnings that your virtual memory is low, you'll need to
increase the minimum size of your paging file. Windows sets the initial
minimum size of the paging file equal to the amount of random access
memory (RAM) installed on your computer, and the maximum size equal to
three times the amount of RAM installed on your computer. If you see
warnings at these recommended levels, then increase the minimum and
maximum sizes.
