I don't believe there is anything to can do to a process in windows to ensure it's kept resident beyond what slim have tried to do with the setting mentioned.
The Windows kernal decides which processes are idle and can be swapped out to hark disk to free up RAM for other processes. It's part of the virtual memory scheme, beyond the control of programmers. If there was some sort of API call to say, "Always keep this process in RAM", there's a chance that a number of processes would use the call, meaning that Windows would have nothing it was "allowed" to swap out, causing the system to crash or run out of physical memory. The setting mentioned is a kinda work-around where the process is not left idle long enough for the scheduler to swap it out to disk. It should have no effect on brining your PC out of standby. When the system is in standby, application execution is suspended. -- oreillymj _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
