32GB RAM + page file on disk also no crashes. Not all applications will function without a page file, as I said.
There's zero reason to use a RAMDisk for a page file. Stop listening to idiot gamers.
I don't care about ssd lifetime. This is purely an experiment. But you are inadvertently illustrating my point pretty well
I think you're under the false assumption that on Windows the page file is always being thrashed. That isn't how the VMM functions.
SSD "short" life span even from a bunch of 4KiB reads/writes is vastly overstated. Anyone who discusses the page file in terms of SSD lifetime is again, uninformed.
However:
32gb ram no pagefile: crashes
28gb + 2gb ramdisk pagefile: no crashes at all
