| I have 13 instances (most aren't used yet but planning to) on a 64 bit XEON (8 CPU) machine with 16 GB. Presently the %Committed Bytes in Use is exceeding 80% and the PF usage is 14 GB. I have turned off all the instances except the one that are being used - 5. The avialable memory is 100%, Disk Time is 0The target server and total server memory (for one point of time) are as follows Target Server Memory Total Server Memoryinstance1 110592 4552224instance2 4552224 2913792instance3 6928840 5296640instance4 4936736 3298304Why are these so high + committed bytes when all other indicators are low (disk and avialable memory)? Does it have something to do with minimum and maximum memory on server?How can I go about determining if I need more memory or just a config tweak?thanks |

| You can look at perfmon memory counters for each instance, and get memory usage report in ssms for each instance. Put 13 instances on one server sounds too much to me. |
