Sorry I wasn't more clear. Yes, I think paging messages do indicate a memory shortage. I discussed the 2x RAM rule of thumb because I was thinking you could see how much RAM you have, and see how much paging space you have. If you have more than 2 times as much paging space as RAM, then that's why your performance is bad.
ScatterBrain - Making a scientific determination of how much RAM you need? Boy there is a lost art. I can't recall the last time a machine got ordered who's specifications were determined as opposed to guessed at. :-)
