So is the issue that the system needs to have sufficient memory to avoid
high paging rates, not that it has to have enough RAM to load the entire
database into memory? In other words, if I have a low transaction rate,
I might still be able to support a database larger than available RAM?
I'm particularly thinking of a situation where the database is large but
only a small part of it is likely to be active.
