Do you do a lot of live concurrent audio/video streaming and archiving on your multi-user applications? Check it out... One of our servers at work has 8Gb of RAM. A Windows Server allows up to 2Gb of RAM per process. To optimize performance, make sure your Server.xml configuration file does not have a stream cache RAM percentage exceeding 2Gb. For example, FCS installs with a default value of 40% RAM, so the server would have a cache size of 3.2Gb on an 8Gb server. A better range might be 25%, or 20% just to be safe. Thanks to Pritham for the tip!
