how do I assign more RAM to the FileMaker Server 7.0?

in FileMaker Server v7 - v11

Featured Replies

I have a windows 2003 server with 2GB of RAM. The System Administrator Tools says the maximum RAM available for FileMaker Server 7.0 is 479MB. But my cache hit is always 99% to 100% all the time. I want to lower the cache hit to 95%. I wonder how I can increase the RAM, or whether I should worry about it.

Thanks in advance.

A cache hit of 99-100% means that the the cache is big anough as it is: no need to add more.

You would *reduce* the cache size to get the hit rate down to 95%.

How do I know how much is enough?

I read somewhere says RAM size of 5% of the total database size should be sufficient. But when I applied that rule and reduced the RAM size, we had problems of data not showing up.

thank you.

the hit rate is always 99% -100 %, regardless I have RAM of 200 MB or 470MB.

Just want to find out if it is normal.
