I got SQL Server 2005 standard edition x86 on a Windows box running Windows 2003 R2 standard edition x86 with 3GB of physical memory. Its running a lot of old legacy applications and cannot be migrated to newer version of OS at the moment.
The system is suffering from memory pressure which at times hits under 50MB available memory. From what I understand, I can have the memory increased to 6GB, enable /pae parameter in boot.ini file & enable AWE on SQL and set SQL memory limit to 3GB and it should work without any issues.
Any comments if I missed anything.
