Well none of the actually DIT is cached (into the RAM), IMO. The engine might cache regular/common lookups, indexes etc but none to the actually DC's RAM. But then again you have to define but what you mean by "into RAM".
Nathan is quite right with "Checking the working set size of LSASS is not reliable." There are many more processes that the LSASS is taking care of. You could dump the LSASS process and take a look and then determine from there what is happening. But now I am curious why you asking :P Do you have a hungry LSASS process? If you do what Patch/Service Pack level do you have on that box?

Checking the working set size of LSASS is not reliable. There's process overhead for things like lsa session handles and other stuff related to the security sub system. The most accurate method is to enable the ESE Database performance counters and look at "Cache Size". To enable the DB counters, install Server Performance Advisor, or check out http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/2000/server/res kit/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/Windows/2000/server/r eskit/en-us/distrib/dsbm_mon_pzgc.asp -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Roger Seielstad Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2005 8:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] How much of the DIT is cached in RAM ?
