Memory\Pool Paged Bytes and Memory\Pool Paged Resident Bytes

The Pool Paged Bytes is the size, in bytes, of the paged pool, an area of system memory used by the operating system for objects that can be written to disk when they are not being used.

The Pool Paged Resident Bytes is the size, in bytes, of the nonpaged pool, an area of system memory used by the operating system for objects that can never be written to disk, but must remain in physical memory as long as they are allocated.

A ratio of Pool Paged Bytes to Pool Paged Resident Bytes can be calculated by:

Memory\Pool Paged Bytes ÷ Memory\Pool Paged Resident Bytes

This ratio can be used as a memory contention index to help in planning capacity. As this approaches zero, additional memory ...
