But we're telling folks to stay well under 25-50% utilization. Must be strange things happening that will suddenly make you fill up paging space as well as spooling? If you don't notice your paging usage doubled twice, will you notice when CP starts to force users at random? Somehow I thought the computation used to be paging space = block paging factor * ( total virtual storage + real memory ) but I cannot find the last component in the book anymore...
