VMS Help Sys Parameters, MPW_HILIMIT *Conan The Librarian |
MPW_HILIMIT sets an upper limit for the modified-page list. When
the list accumulates the number of pages specified by this limit,
writing of the list begins. The pages that are written are then
transferred to the free-page list.
If MPW_HILIMIT is too low, excessive page faulting can occur from
the page file. If it is too high, too many physical pages can be
consumed by the modified-page list.
If you increase MPW_HILIMIT, you might also need to increase
MPW_WAITLIMIT. Note that if MPW_WAITLIMIT is less than
MPW_HILIMIT, a system deadlock occurs. The values for the two
parameters are usually equal.
MPW_HILIMIT has the AUTOGEN and GEN attributes.
