RE: Store.exe in Task Manager
So if store.exe is not using more memory (only 512K out of 2GB): A) Does that guarrentee it does not need more? B) Is there a way to force or encourage it to use more? I know, I know.

It will use as much as it needs. You can't force it to use more - it would be pointless. When it needs more, it grabs more.

It's a saying that Ed is known for. It quite correctly applies though. If you buy 2gb of memory for your Exchange server, what good is it doing if only 512mb gets used. Does it make you feel better if there is lots of memory available in reserve just in case? Memory is much faster to use than using pagefile, ergo Exchange wants to use memory if it is available.
