Operating Systems AIX Excessive Page INs Post 100707 by ScatterBrain on Wednesday 1st of March 2006 11:57:17 AM

i would guess that page-ins WOULD be a memory shortage.... because eventually that would result in page-outs.

the way i learned it (a long time ago), the general rule is use 2x paging space up to a certain limit (like 1GB or something like that). start with, say 1x or 1.5x, then run your application, then run the 'lsps -a' command to see utilization. once you start hitting into the solid double digits (like 30 to 40% or more), then you may want to consider installing more memory. trust me... you DO NOT wanna even come close to 100%. give your self plenty of buffer.

paging space in AIX is the same as swap space on solaris.
