ABSTRACT:
A method and system for improving the performance of memory in constrained virtual memory environment by reducing physical paging activity is provided. Accordingly, in a method and system in accordance with the present invention, the pages stolen or removed from the active processes are compressed then placed in the free list. In so doing, the additional space provided via this compression allows for more real memory to be available for other purposes.
