Continuing on my quest for better Windows XP Performance, what size should my paging file be?

My Master drive is a 75 GB running all my apps (almost none as i recently formatted)
My slave is a 8 GB dedicated to windows and some small files i need installed on my Windows disk.

My Slave drive, as i really dont use anything on it except Windows it self is system managed for the paging file, my master is a minimum of a gig and a max of 4 gigs. I have 256 MB of real ram (which is DDR SD) What should my sizes be?

in women's breasts.

This is considered a major breakthrough since women complain about men
staring at their breasts and not listening to them.

The rule of thumb I have heard so many times is 1.5 x your RAM.

ie....I have 1g of RAM so my file is 1.5g!
