> One does not learn to swim in shallow water. I did - and it was salt water - more strictly what I had learned about swimming hadn't worked before until, one day at the seaside, I found that I wasn't relying on the sand a short distance beneath my feet to stay afloat and my flailing arms were actually propelling me.
The lesson in the current context is probably that it's as well to make sure of your backup in case things go very wrong, the equivalent of the sand beneath my feet. Perhaps one should treat any potential changes to the paging data sets in the same way as making changes to pagefile.sys on your C disk - or whatever the MAC equivalent is.
