i need to run a few visual studios on windows XP and it seems to take up a lot of memory. i am also running resharper which is a memory hog.
i am running 32 bit XP. How much memory can i put into my machine until i get to the point where the OS hits its limit.
Also, any other ways of running multiple visual studio without such slow performance.
32-bit Operating Systems are limited to 4 GB of RAM, which may or may not be enough for you. Also, I think Windows shows 3 GB of RAM if you install 4 GB.
I suggest you switch to 64-bit and upgrade to 8 GB if you can.
UPDATE: See Jeff’s blog post on the subject: Dude, Where’s My 4 Gigabytes of RAM?
