Windows Server Forum / Windows 2000 / Terminal Services / August 2004Server memory requirements for T/S Clients
I have a Win/2000 Terminal Server with 1GB of memory. The page file initial size set to 1536MB and the Max size set to 3072MB. I have 17 T/S clients that connect to my server. In Task manager my memory usage runs at an average of 1475702MB and higher. My question is do I need more memory? In the future I will be adding atleast 10 more T/S clients for a total of 27. Is there a chart or guide I could go by as far as memory requirements for this amount of T/S clients? What is the recommended amount or memory on my server for each T/S client? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ++ Found my answer at: http://www.bestsoftwareinc.com/businessworks/product/TS_Sys _Req_White_Paper.pdf Thanks. >-----Original Message----- >I have a Win/2000 Terminal Server with 1GB of memory.

For example, I'm the IT Manager at a Medical Office where we use Practice Management & Electronic Medical Records software which each use 40-50MB per instance, so each session can easily suck-up 100-125MB or RAM. Although my example is not ordinary, I wanted you to be aware that you should test what your users require. Also beware that the user processes may only access 1/2 of your installed RAM, so if you have 1GB or RAM the user's programs may only access 500MB, because the rest is strictly for system processes.
