Well, firstly you don't state what you're trying to achieve - is there a
specific problem you're trying to solve?

To answer some of your points in a general sense:

Doesn't surprise me. What that setting does is prioritize background
processes over foreground ones. You don't really have any foreground
ones, so it won't make much difference.

Unlikely to make much difference. Windows is unlikely to swap out
slimserver unless it has to (i.e. it's short of ram) - you have a
decent amount and again, nothing else running, so it's unlikely to be
swapped out. If anything turning that feature off may prevent
occasional "hangups" of the interface.

Yup.

Use as much as you can get away with, but maybe not quite that much.
With 512 available, I'd be wary of going much above 200 for the process
as a whole - what does music magic use?
