Hi all,
i have a question from someone about a brand new SQL sever they have it is dual CPU 32gb ram 4x sas in raid 10 it has server 2008 r2 x64 and SQL 2008 it's running in free vsphere and has all memory allocated to the single vm.
The database is 5gb and SQL is only using 4.5, under windows server task manager windows has appeared to have cached over 20gb of ram.
This person says that it's a similar setup to other places and they all use the full amount of ram.
Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening ?
