Thank you very much for your help!
 
Since my typical record is less than 100 bytes I guess that I can use Page Size 
= 512 bytes
 without degradation of database performance.This would conserve memory.
 
How vital is default number of pages for database performance? 
Can I drastically drop the number of pages to number of records accessed by 
user per his typical database session? 
 
Regards, 
Samuel

  On many Windows systems it will default to 4096.  It tries to match the
  cluster size on NTFS volumes.

  Actually, it is closer to 3MB (or 9MB) of used memory, as each entry
  in the page cache has some overhead.
